OLafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen developed an affordable solar powered light for people who don’t have access to reliable electricity. Still 1/5 of the world population lives of grid and rely on for example kerosene lamps to illuminate the nights. The product called little sun is an art work that works in life according Eliasson and Ottesen. See a product image after the jump.
