Noah’s Tree

in : Design  

Noah’s Tree is an art sculpture made by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac on a request from GDF Suez (French Gaz compagny). Noah’s Tree, made with neon, is also called “The Jedi’s Tree”, and is supposed to encourage people to subscribe to gaz bills on the internet. For each subscription, GDF Suez is going to put a copy of the user’s last bill on the tree, to represent the fact that a subscription makes you plant a new tree. Awesome idea by GDF Suez, and awesome sculpture by J-C de Castelbajac.

On the 5th of July, the tree will be removed from Place du Palais Royal (Paris), and will be sold by auctions. The fund will go to Unicef’s association. Thanks to Buzzman for the invit.
