Many trees cut out every year because of our necessity and throw away many branch at that time. This design used the branches which has no worth. It shows how to make up new thing from nothing. The structure is making a hole into branch and combine with electric bulb that is good for mood lighting.

This design shows possibility about becoming a valuable thing from a nothing.

Losanges by Bouroullec Brothers

Called Losanges, the rugs are hand-made in Northern Pakistan, combining thirteen colours in a pattern of tessellated diamond shapes.

As well as being crafted by hand, the Afghan wool is also spun by hand, which allows for some unique color tones to be highlighted.

This subtly random technique makes each lozenge slightly different and each rug, a unique piece.
