Tree Roots Emerge from the Ceiling in an Installation by Giuseppe Licari

Organic chandeliers featuring prickly roots of trees.
The relationship between humankind and nature, growth and decay are central themes in Licari’s work.
These structures reminded me of Aurora Robson's work with recyclables.
 


 
 
 

Woods Bagot: KIOSC Green School in Victoria, Australia

The design is part of a specific effort to integrate eco-friendly construction methods in accord with the environmentally responsible 'technical and further education' (TAFE) curriculum taught
inside the classroom. This building reminded me of our current serial planes project, as well as Zaha Hadid's work.

The framework was specially conceived to allow visitors to engage with the textile samples in a more interactive way, offering them a closer look at the selection. it was designed in a way to recreate the scene of a picnic.
