In our household we’ve known about the economic, environmental and therapeutic benefits of LED lighting for a while. And while we’ll probably do our own write-up on the subject at some point in the future, we came across this article today and thought you might enjoy reading it for yourselves.

The article is written more for home decorating than for therapy of any kind, but it still outlines a lot of the basics of LED lighting and gives some links to other articles on the subject as well.

Now, please understand that our home is NOT lit up like the underside of an inner city street racing car. Its just not our decorating style, so I found amusement, and even some befuddlement at the fixtures portrayed here. However, I kind of dug the illuminated dining table, though it seems less like a formal dining experience and more like a game room table to me. SEEING the temperature of the water coming out of a faucet by its color could be very helpful, especially for families with small children or infirmed. Finally, I’m thinking that self-lit fixtures in the bathroom would certainly make 3 a.m. trips to the bathroom much more comfortable than having to either blind yourself by turning on the lights or else fumbling around in the dark. Hmm.

Honey, what do you think of this waterfall shower with mood-lighting?…
