Glowing Aquatic Greens

The Pensa 'Light Reeds' Bring Life to the Concrete City

Getting in touch with nature can be hard in the concrete jungle, but the Pensa 'Light Reeds' are the next best thing to a lush green forest. The faux aquatic herbage provides a picturesque view to reconnect New Yorkers with mother nature.

The peculiar lightning fixture uses water currents to generate power and emit light for passing patrons. The tentacle-like form emulates the statuesque water reeds that grow abundantly in ponds and rivers. The street lights sway in the wind and radiate a soft glow, setting off a lovey-dovey backdrop for city slickers. Although these reeds are artifical, they supply a unique solution to two city planning problems: lightning up inaccessible walkways and bringing life into a grey city.

The Pensa Light Reeds may be artificial, but it reconnects citizens with the dissipating beauty of the world's most precious resource: water.
