Up-and-coming designer Wendy Legro created this awesome piece as part of her graduation from design school. ‘Morning Glory’ is comprised of small flower designs within a larger organic shape. The piece has a sensor that closes the flowers when it’s light out, letting in that sunshine, and opens the flowers after the sun sets. Legro wanted Morning Glory to represent a return to humans’ natural relationship with the sun.  The sun is our natural light source. But homes are filled with artificial light replacing it, and undeliberately disrupting our biological clock.
This product works autonomously with a light sensor. During the day, mechanical flowers are closed enabling sunlight to come in. When sun sets, the flowers open and start to emit light. In this way, awareness for this important phenomenon will be brought back.
