SonUmbra Solar Powered Tree

Composed of strands of light emitting fabric woven into a lucent web of branches, the SonUmbra solar powered tree offers up the perfect solution to energy efficient lighting for public spaces. The sonic shade of light is intended to be planted in remote areas, where it offers shelter from the sun by day and serves as a gathering place for the local community at night.
