Protect yourself from stupid rules, use the ‘Euro Condom’!: the ‘Euro Condom’ as part of Milan Design Week 2009.
As from September 2009 frosted bulbs will be banned in accordance with new EU guidelines on light sources because they are said give off less light than clear bulbs. However, according to the specifications of various manufacturers the difference, measured in Lumens, is negligible or not existent.
German designer Ingo Maurer unveiled ‘Euro Condom’ created in response to new EU guidelines that will see frosted light bulbs banned. The product consists of a thin, heat-resistant silicone cover that turns a clear bulb into a frosted one.
