Marissa over at TrendHunter spotted this one...a Brazilian disco illuminated entirely by LED's. THe house DJ's came up with a design concept inspired by native basket-weaving. Molded translucent panels hide banks of computer-programmed LED's which are controlled at the DJ booth to the time of the music.

There's no shortage of energy at this place. Check it out in action:
