Studying GOST standards, rules, and regulations. Checking the most promising directions. Bringing it back to Earth. Selecting six best options. Analyzing.

Preparing dummies. Now they regulate the traffic in our industrial design department. Designing easy-to-follow manuals and schematics for the builders and installers. Checking our solution for the practicality in a city environment. Red / Yellow / Green. Luxofor design concept. The shape of traffic lights has barely changed since they were invented—there have always been three round lights: red, yellow and green.

Initially, the sections were round simply because this allowed the spherical bulp inside light the glass evenly. Today traffic lights use super bright light diodes that can be arranged in any way. And the sections are plastic, which also means any shape can be created. Our idea is to produce square traffic lights. This can make the signals more easily noticeable and recognizable, with larger lit area for the same overall dimensions.

Additional section also needs to be modified. Now drivers see green light when they are allowed to make the turn, but no light at all if they have to wait. Square traffic lights would benefit the image of any city. Luxofor Traffic Lights Design Concept by Art Lebedev Studio. Traffic light radical redesign? Why not! We have a lot of possibilities to arrange shapes of lights now with super bright light emitting diodes. Art Lebedev Studio has took this chance and designed great looking and functional traffic light which can be fitted to any place around the globe and will not change face of the cities too much.

Lundi 18 septembre 2006 13h04 Cher Peter, Suite à notre conversation téléphonique, je vais essayer de t'expliquer mon engouement pour le studio russe : (Art Lebedev est à gauche, barbu, lunettes, en claquettes). Tout d'abord, je tiens à préciser que ce studio est aujourd'hui assez connu et a déja eu l'honneur d'un papier dans Etapes, notamment pour certains objets tel le plus connu, le clavier optimus : ... qui n'est d'ailleurs pas encore sorti car apparemment très compliqué à réaliser.

Un des DA du studio est lui aussi relativement connu dans le milieu du design mondial, il s'agit du très étrange Oleg Pashenko, qui s'habille parfois en momie (!) , et dont l'univers est très personnel ... assez glauque, voire terrifiant. Il a gagné je crois un Flash Festival Award à New York : Mais ce n'est nullement cette renommée - relative - qui m'a poussé vers eux. Un jeune homme de 30 ans ! Istanbul Isiklarius traffic lights.
