I recently gave birth to a new blog called “Design Sexiness. This is the blog where I get to wax poetic about any form of what I refer to as design sexiness. It is several steps above clean, functional design. It has to be really special to warrant the “sexiness” label.

It will be about architecture, interior/decor, industrial design, furniture, art, graphic design, web design, user interface design, etc.

In my research, I have come across many things that could fit in this site as well. I thought it would be cool to do a regular feature, of applicable objects, here at 21stCenturyParenting.com. Sunday seems like a good day for this feature. Please leave a comment to let us know how often you would like to see these features!

So today, I give you the Candela Tooli lights – at Genius Jones Miami. Genius Jones is an AMAZING store for kids and babies. they carry beautiful, modern design. I visited the store when they were on Lincoln Road, in South Beach. The store owner was very friendly and down to earth. Now they have a location in the Miami Design District too! I need to make contact with them again, now that I have a Twilli.

Now I have to admit that I do not own this product. (I would be happy to do a more comprehensive review/shameless plug, if someone wants to send 1 or 2 of these guys my way!) So I can only guess how cool it would be to have these cordless, thus portable, lights for midnight diaper or potty duty! Plus they are rechargeable!

And I find the forms to be very friendly. I guess there will be SOME kid out there that screams in fear when he sees it. But I think Twilli would giggle when she saw it! Seems like this could be a good thing to “keep monsters away”. And it seems a lot safer than the traditional night light, with a glass bulb.

Some further research illuminates the fact that these come in a set of 2 lights – with one base, use LED lightbulbs, and automatically light up when removed from base, or if the power goes out. (That’s perfect! I can justify it as hurricane supplies!) Oh, and they claim to have a battery life of 8 hours.

Do any of you have these? Please leave a comment to tell us what you think. Are they worth it?
