Frog Design recently pondered how to get encourage more sustainable lighting choices. Their solution was to use LED lights. Their task wasn’t as simple as creating LED’s because this type of light tends to produce a lot of heat and also is less intense than incandescent bulbs. their solution was to create LED lights inside glass fixtures that look like incandescent bulbs. The power LED is set inside a bulb, which dissipates its heat to the aluminium base. The design is meant to ease consumers into changing their light bulbs.
