How to recreate this moment of reunion with the community, under a “light tree”?

Most of the times we feel this need of escaping the caos of cities to return to the “wild wilderness” as our nomadic ancestors. Researching from the past until nowadays we’ve come to a simple and compact object, with it’s own kit, that is gonna help you light up the night, in the forest, in a new way. We decided to surround ourselves by trees, feeling the breeze blowing through the leaves…until finding coexistence with them, by taking advantage of their branches to fix the structure of our light “system”.

The strings, hanging from the trees, converge in an “Y” support that block them. From there they flow into some hooks, which they claims a multi-collapsible reflector, whereby adjusts the reflection of light in every kind of directions.

Obviously, then comes the light, that just needs to be placed under the reflector. It is possible to choose between 3 different intesities: you just need to create the right atmosphere, involving people to join this community under the shadow of PIO light.
