JONAS SAMSON - LIGHT EMITTING WALLPAPER


With Jonas Samson's high-tech light emitting wallpaper its possible to use a two dimensional flat surface as a light source instead of a 3D object. When the wallpaper is turned off, it is indistinguishable as a source of light and looks like regular wallpaper.

I love this for a club wall or my friend Carl Anderson's salon in Sydney the nailzoo

Nice work Jonas.
