Fortunately a bunch of different designers and lighting companies have started trying to bring sunlight into the indoors with fiber-optic sunlight transport devices. Following this path, two RCA students have come up with an amazingly brilliant Sunlight Table. Anab Jain and Stuart Wood’s innovative table brings sunlight from the outdoors using fiber-optic cables, and pumps it up through the wooden table: creating the is the first piece of furniture I have ever seen which integrates sunlight into its design.
Threaded with tiny fiber-optic cables that create a “sunlight display grid” on its surface, the Sunlight Table is designed to bring natural light into workspaces. The fiber-optic cables embedded in the wood table connect to an input grid placed over a window. Light and shade are transmitted from the panel through the fibers and into the table. Movement outside the window, such as passing birds or shifting clouds, brings a little bit of the outside world back to the user.

Fiber optics can never be replaced,...it! They’re still cooler than anything else.
