Glow In The Dark Kitchen Wallpaper
Paris

glow-cuisine-2.jpgEver stubbed your toe stumbling into the dark of the kitchen for a glass of water or a midnight snack? Designers Ich & Kar have designed phosphorescent wallpaper to make sure that never happens again...

 
 

glow-cuisine1.jpgThe wallpaper (which also comes in stripes) is made with phosphorescent ink that soaks up natural or artificial light by day and glows in the monochromatic night -- no electricity required.

"Phosphowall" is a wallpaper prototype from Ich&Kar. It's on view until January 9 at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, and will be produced by Rasch.

I think I would freak out for the first couple nights when getting a glass of water at 3 am, other than that, it is pretty cute, I would frame a piece of it and hang it at a child's bedroom, it beats the glue on stars in the ceiling.
