Designer Anna Lomax has introduced a look at her latest work in the form of the All Lit Up! sculpture reflecting an illuminated Christmas tree. It is in the Victoria [and Albert](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-burberry-trench) Museum in South Kensington, London and it works together with the entryway columns of the museum. The design installation forms a spiraling structure that creates the traditional look of a festive tree. It is meant to bring a whimsical feeling of joy and child-like playfulness.

Lomax shares, "My design for the [2025](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightmass-2025-pendants) V&A Christmas Tree uses the iconic V&A dome columns as a starting point but gives them an actual playful twist, embodying the 'Christmas Spirit' through a spectacle of light." Senior curator Meneesha Kellay continues, "Lighting up and lifting spirits this festive season, we are thrilled to commission Anna Lomax for this year's V&A Christmas tree installation. Delighting visitors with her playful site-specific response, Anna has taken inspiration from the iconic columns in our Grand Entrance."
