Known for large-scale light-based installations (as well as the temporary waterfalls in New York’s East River), Olafur Eliasson is bringing his obsessions to bear on sustainable energy. The Little Sun is an affordable, solar-powered light that will directly profit retailers in the off-grid communities that need it most. The Little Sun can replace kerosene lamps, improve safety, and make it possible for stores to remain open after dark.

WHERE TO BUY
The Little Sun is $25 in areas with electricity and roughly half that in areas without electricity.
