In an effort to bring more nature into this urban home, Polish architecture firm mode:lina conspired with the own to make a chandelier out a tree branch. “It can not be just any branch!” said the owner, “I will bring one from the place where I used to spend my childhood holidays.”
We’re adding it to our file of tree branch inspirations, started when we started hauling home downed limbs after Hurricane Sandy.
The chandelier seems to be little more than the carefully-chosen branch looped with outdoor string lights and hardwired into the ceiling. It’s one of the best chandelier’s we’ve seen in some time…
….and totally warms up the very modern room.
String lights can solve a multitude of indoor lighting problems.

I’m writing a blogpost on my blog (microcut.dk), about celling lamps, of this kind, and I was wondering if I could use one of your pictures of this beautiful lamp, as an example, if I credit you by your websites name and link to this post in the blogpost?
Hope to hear from you ? Have a really nice day ^_^
