I never thought I'd use the word elegant when referring to an electrical outlet, but that's what I thought of when I saw this design by Bocci, a contemporary design and manufacturing house located in Vancouver, Canada. Bocci offers a complete suite of innovative electrical accessories simply named 22. Power receptacles, on/off switches, data connections and more may be mounted flush into the drywall or millwork with a new CSA approved utility system that eliminates the need for a cover plate. Electrical outlets will blend in and be more visually subtle. Love this! 
In addition to fabulous electrical accessories, Bocci designs fantastic lighting. Their latest line of blown glass pendant lighting, named 28, was created by lead designer, Omar Arbel. Each unique sphere is the result of a glass blowing technique where air is periodically blown in and then out of an intermittently heated and then cooled glass matrix. Designed to be clustered in hexagonal shapes, globes can be made in clear, white or frosted glass and housed a low voltage or LED lamp.
The following images are of Bocci's 14, a family of low voltage pendants designed to be clustered like 28. The light from the center of the sphere interacts with the rifts, bubbles and other imperfections to create a soft halo of light. When the pendants are hung in masses it makes quite a dramatic statement reminding me of a winter's snowfall or starry night sky.
