For the overexcited and hyper-kinetic of you out there, here is your chance to give back to Mother Earth. The “Move Your Energy” armchair features a smart kinematic mechanism energized by the [swaying movement of its user](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sway-chair); this simple system is used to power the [integrated LED lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumen-chair) intended for reading.

The power independent concept incorporates a simple arrangement of a dynamo and a flywheel disc. A sliding lever runs the flywheel, thus magnetically inducing current from the dynamo. The futuristic design of this [shell seating concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/low-battery-chair), though, is stunning by itself, boasting ample ergonomic curves, a stylish flexible lamp wire and silky aluminum components.

Although an entertaining thought, it can be tricky swaying along while reading; maybe the LED lamp is actually intended to show your dizzy self the way to a rejuvenating shower.
