Wind has been on Trend Hunter's radar lately for its ability to function as an environmentally friendly source of energy; so much so that it's easy to forget that [wind can create beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iwagumi-air-scape) as well, something the Luke Jerram 'Aeolus' demonstrates.

Inspired by traditional Aeolus harps, the Luke Jerram 'Aeolus' installation captures winds melody through its [acoustic pavilion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arka-nova). It consists of a dome of tubes which, when the wind blows over them, create melodies similar to the way [wind instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otonomori) do.
