This reminded me of the video by DIY Perks building an "artificial sunlight" for their office: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bqBsHSwPgw

The amount of effort is unbelievable, but I'd love to have something like this at home. I can only imagine the impact on my productivity during winter evenings…




I was at a party this weekend at a co-op where many of the rooms had no windows. I'm sure something like that would be well-appreciated.

A few years back there was a philanthropist who wanted to donate housing to a university, but one of his stipulations was that everyone got their own room, and that the rooms that didn't get natural light would be outfitted with an artificial window like this.
