The GlassHouse, an innovative pendant lamp and mini greenhouse designed by Krstyna Pojerova. The light has been created to satisfy the desire to grow fresh herbs within an urban kitchen. The donut-shaped base features an opening at its centre, allows one to reach inside the glass form to plant small herbs within the gutter-like opening which runs around the radius of the lamp. Not only facilitating easy access to the plants, it also acts as the passage of light from which an electrical bulb hangs, and ensures adequate ventilation enhancing the natural microclimate. The ‘glasshouse’ makes use of the otherwise useless heat waste of the bulb, which can also be easily regulated with a dimmer placed over the lamp.
