Kettle that prepares tea using incandescent light bulb's waste energy

ECAL graduate, Estelle Sauvage has designed a kettle that performs the same tasks that the traditional ones do but in somewhat unique manner. The kettle uses a 100W light bulb and heats up the water to let you prepare a cup of tea. It has an incandescent bulb mounted on the wooden base. And guess what it can heat water up to 90°C. Fairly good, isn’t it? The incandescent bulbs as y’all know are seeing the slow death; the kettle pays tribute to staging the bulb and its death. The cool kettle was showed off at the Pompidou Center of Metz on 4th July’10 during the Market of Design for the event named Imaginez Maintenant. The kettle by Estelle Sauvage uses 97.4% of the incandescent light bulb's waste energy to heat your tea.
