Giant Light Like Shaped Like Spacecraft, Doesn't Go Pew Pew
Posted by Kit Eaton at 11:15 PM on September 26, 2008
This is a giant exterior light assembly that looks as angular as a stealth fighter, and bit like a Star Trek shuttlepod. By designer Jeroen Molenaar, it's got some artistic merit and sure, it lights up outside places really nicely... but who cares? It's a giant light fitting that looks like a spaceship, and that's all you need to know. [Jeroenmolenaar via BBG]

How long before someone spray-paints "NCC-1701D" on it?

My first reaction was that it looked a tad like a Mech but with really short legs.

@hakubak: Let me help you with that....
Really cool in the way that its so oversized and fugly that it will be great when you move it as far away from you as possible to lure the mosquitos and other vermin away.

Hmmm at first glance it looks like it could be some sort of bear safe tent (if jacked up high enough). Make it a bear safe tent, and you've got yourself a sale.

Don't like it, but would be fun to ride down a snowy hill... until it collapses and impales you :(

THAaaaats where I saw this before. If it had a rectangular barrel sticking out the front, it's be a tank from Battle Zone.

@hakubak:
Exactly. I think that calling it a spaceship lookalike is like someone looking at tents and shouting "SPACESHIP SPACESHIP SPACESHIP".
