Everyone always complains about the Christmas season coming earlier and earlier, but we think when we can have Christmas trees like the one pictured above, it’s not such a bad thing. Created by English fashion designer [Gareth Pugh], the tree features sixty white neon tubes, and is supported by a freestanding metal rod. It reminds us of the light sabers in Star Wars, which is probably why we like it so much. The tree is just a carrier for the decorations anyway, right? You can check out the tree in person at the TOPSHOP in Oxford Circus, London.
first!
i wonder if an equivalent effect could be accomplished using leds and opaque polycarbonate (or similar) tubes?
or perhaps CC tubes or EL wire
cc tubes jesse? you’d get the crowd a bit mad after they were told they MIGHT regain their eyesight in 2 years after looking at it :)
