This marvelous creation looks like it was created from painted [tree branches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/larose-guyon). The chandelier itself appears interesting and elegant, but when the light is switched on shadows are cast on the walls, creating the appearance of surrounding indoor trees. This sleek, white design comes from a collaboration between artists Thyra Hilden and Pio Diaz (or 'Hilden & Diaz). They combined common interests and came up with a design to "tamper with common perception," according to the site. This fantastic fixture brings nature into the bedroom using its clever [shadow-casting concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foreshadow-table-lamp). Forms in Nature is a completely modern approach to [chandelier designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tamar-grande-chandelier). It's an intriguing way to bring light into any room. Why not cover your walls in this wild tree creation? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Shadow-casting Lighting:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore new ways to incorporate shadow-casting techniques in lighting fixtures for unique and artistic designs. - **Nature-inspired Chandeliers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop chandeliers that mimic natural elements, such as branches or plants, to bring the beauty of nature into interior spaces. - **Modern Chandelier Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create sleek and contemporary chandelier designs that offer a visually captivating and novel lighting experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Lighting Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovate within the lighting design industry by incorporating unconventional materials and techniques for creating unique lighting fixtures. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with lighting designers to develop innovative chandelier designs that enhance the aesthetics of interior spaces and create immersive experiences. - **Art and Sculpture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Merge the worlds of art and design by creating chandeliers that not only provide illumination but also serve as sculptural focal points within interior spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Plant-Inspired Dynamic Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blossom-chandelier.md) - [Tree Branch-Formed Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/celestial-attraction.md) - [Sculptural Contemporary Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volant.md) - [Minimal Collaborative Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linea-selva.md) - [Otherworldly Lighting Fixture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otherworldly-lighting-fixture.md) - [Organically Shaped Shadow Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lamp.md) - [Sculptural Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp.md) - [Dynamic Hand-Blown Glass Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaris.md) - [Elegant Metal Perforated Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foreshadow-table-lamp.md)
