Generate, a design company based in Quebec, Canada, likes to create environment-friendly furniture and lighting. One of its latest ideas is the Glow Brick: a night light with a light bulb set in a clear, solid brick. All you do is recharge it in natural light during the day and by night, it'll light up any room. This is definitely not any ordinary night light, which is why I like it (okay, so I sometimes sleep with a night light on after watching scary movies). It may not really cure your nightmares, but it still makes you wonder, how'd they do that?! The Glow Brick is $45 USD, with free shipping to Canada and the U.S. [Found via Unplugged Living]

The Glow Brick is a really unique night light. It is cordless glow in the dark suspended light bulb filled with a phosphor luminescent powder that is encased in a solid acrylic brick. It glows by releasing energy it has absorbed from natural UV light and recharges simply by being exposed to daylight. Weird.
