Deep down, all people love nature - designers are sure of this, because they have so many projects associated with it. For example, oh table from a real tree, we have already told, the subject caused an ambiguous reaction from readers. Now - tree lamps.
Some can even be called frightening, these lamps, chandeliers, bedside lamps look so unexpected. And the most interesting thing is that the idea of the project belongs to a girl, Frenchwoman Isabelle Sicart. The first one seems too bulky, ugly and even strange, because the tree trunk here was taken almost in real size. Seeing such a miracle on your head, under the ceiling, you can be seriously scared. Still, all owners have their own quirks, but hanging a tree at the top is something new.
But the other two projects are really pleasing to the eye. Both lamps are no longer made of huge trees with a lot of branches. Only a couple of branches were used here, which seem to be quite neat and well-groomed, the first one is completely painted white. I think, looking at such a night light, you will not immediately think about a branch, it seems too cute for such a seemingly rough thing as a tree branch. And the second lamp turned out to be red, it immediately attracts everyone's attention with its originality.
If on a white lamp, the floor lamps looked appropriate, since they were of the same color, then they do not quite match with this, whether it is a matter of size. Either in what else, or maybe this is how it seems to me personally. Be that as it may, the idea is impressive in itself - this is definitely something new.

Air lamps, cloud lamps, paper lamps
Remember how in the elementary grades of school and in the preparatory group of the kindergarten we had to cut out all sorts of handicrafts from colored paper like snowflakes, Christmas trees, lanterns? It was especially difficult to make flashlights: scissors now and then tried to cut more paper than was needed, and then the flashlight ceased to be as beautiful as the one that the teacher showed. At least that's how it was with me … London-based designer Yu Jordy Fu, apparently, does not have such problems with the manufacture of flashlights

"Rods - branches from the tree of knowledge": How the greats of this world and the children of commoners were punished in childhood
Until recently, in the social structure of many countries, it was believed that parental love is a strict attitude towards children, and any corporal punishment implied benefits for the child himself. And until the beginning of the twentieth century, flogging with rods was a common thing, and in some countries this punishment took place until the end of the century. And what is noteworthy is that each nationality has its own national method of flogging, developed over the centuries: in China - bamboo, in Persia - a whip, in Russia - rods, and in England - a stick.
