Designer Marco Stefanelli‘s ‘Brecce Collection’ features innovative lamps made by fusing high-tech with nature. Using salvaged wood sourced from a local river and lumber mill, he removes a section and embeds low-energy LED lights and wires inside, filling in the gaps with resin. This results in wooden objects (the larger ones can be used as stools) that emit a soft and “natural” glow. Click through to see pictures of the hybrid creations:
