# Lightbox Christmas Trees Hello Wood's 'Tree of Arts' Will Be Recycled Once Taken Down By Joey Haar | Published 2016-12-27 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tree-of-arts References: [archdaily](http://www.archdaily.com/802067/hello-wood-creates-reusable-christmas-tree-from-lightboxes-in-budapest) & [hellowood.eu](http://www.hellowood.eu/) 'Tree of Arts,' the latest installation from [Hello Wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clt-house), is more than just a Christmas tree. Rather, the conical structure emphasizes [sustainability](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-for-the-trees) by being constructed specifically for the purpose of being recycled in the nearby 'Palace of the Arts' building. Built in the plaza of that building in Budapest, Hungary, Tree of Arts is made entirely from [lightboxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suspended-lighting-installation), giving it a unique and creative look that's nonetheless in line with the Christmas tradition. Hello Wood is known for creating installations with a strong social backing. The Hungarian art collective recently created an interesting and metaphorical commemorative piece in Toronto, for example. Tree of Arts isn't even the collective's first Christmas tree installation -- it has previously installed in London, Manchester, and Geneva. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sustainable Installations:** Creating installations that emphasize sustainability, such as Hello Wood's 'Tree of Arts,' which is constructed specifically for recycling. - **Lightbox Creations:** Using lightboxes to create unique and creative installations, like the conical structure of Hello Wood's 'Tree of Arts'. - **Art with a Social Backing:** Creating art installations that carry a strong social message, as demonstrated by Hello Wood's previous works. ### Where This Applies - **Art Installation:** Opportunities to create sustainable and socially impactful art installations using innovative materials and construction methods. - **Event Planning:** Incorporating unique and eco-friendly installations, like lightbox Christmas trees, to enhance the visual appeal of events and gatherings. - **Sustainable Design:** Developing sustainable design solutions, such as using lightboxes and recyclable materials, to create visually striking and environmentally conscious structures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cutout Christmas Tree Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-tree-display.md) - [Illuminated Christmas Tree Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-lit-up.md) - [Neon Illuminated Christmas Trees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fluorescence.md) - [Plastic Bottle-Made Christmas Trees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caroline-chaptini.md) - [Pop-Up Holiday Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-minute-christmas-trees.md) - [Biodegradable Holiday Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-decor-collection.md) - [Christmas-Themed USB Keys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psb-xmas-tree.md) - [Sculptural Artisanal Christmas Trees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirrors-of-hope.md) - [Tree-Based Material Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abney-effect.md)
