SkyPort Fiber Optic Skylight System
Direct
from Sweden, Parans shows off their Skyport system: light-collecting
panels which you install on your roof, allowing them to feed a remote
part of your house with the purest of natural light. The Skyport system
uses SunWire—”light transporting cable” (read: fiber optics)—to bring
sunlight to its connected “luminaries”. Björks, as they’re called, are
specially designed to generate a light output of up to 4,000 lux,
presumably on a clear day. The SunWire allows for you to distribute
sunlight up to three stories down into a building and the Björks come
in three different shapes, letting you maximize light output for a
particular room’s layout. Pricing and availability are heretofore a
mystery, so you’ll have to wait for now.(Update: Marcus Fransson from Parans was kind enough to share
the price list with me. A SkyPort unit costs roughly $4,500 (less
shipping) which includes 15 feet of SunWire. A large Björk comes in at
around $1,200 and a small one is $420. They ship directly from Sweden,
and they’re available now.)
