The high risk of green designs

At the pop-up retail shop Original Design Circle in Sanlitun Village, people can't help but scratch their heads when surrounded by its unique designs.

From Christmas tree lights made of used computers, huge stone lights comfortable for sitting, to UFO bamboo lamps and calabash chandeliers. The wide stylistic differences have one thing in common: an environmentally friendly concept.

The UFO bamboo lamp is made from hundreds of pieces of bamboo sticks. Bamboo, the fastest growing plant in the world, is considered more environmentally friendly to use as a material than oak or pine trees.
