One of the writers for the Yanko Design blog, Billy May, created a series of sort-of wall-integrated LED lighting fixtures - referred to as “torn lighting,” they blur the edge between structure and fixture.  I love the description on the site:  Anyone who has spent a significant period of time either living in a
small windowless apartment or tripping through the galaxy on a mind
bender may have at one point felt the urge to tear a hole in the wall
to let some light in.

Torn Lighting

All Interior Designers and Lighting Consultants (also, lighting dorks like me who like cool fixtures at home):

I just found out that The Great Indoors is having a 15% off all lighting and ceiling fans sale.  Check it out!  Paying less than retail is always awesome.

My wife pointed me to a post by Not Martha about the latest fixture from Adam Frank Incorporated - the “Reveal” fixture.

Essentially, it’s a projector, casting a multi-focus image onto whatever surface you desire.  The fixture boasts steel templates, and small waves in the projected image creates a feeling of a light breeze moving through the tree scene.

The “first edition” of Adam Frank’s fixture is limited to 1000 units - at $380.00 a pop.  It looks like a pretty interesting fixture, undoubtedly, but thank God I’m a lighting designer.

Adam Frank also uses light as his medium as an artist - check out some of the galleries I found here.
