The ‘Alder Bracket (‘Inonotus radiatus’) grows on trees. Jan Van Mol’s designed by nature concept recreates the Alder Bracket without the negative effect for the tree (the Alder bracket enters the tree through trunk/ branches injuries and decomposes heartwood) Tables and lights are shaped as funghi, and can be strapped on trees. According to Jan Van Mol, The FunkyFunghi is not designed by him, but by nature. Just as his ‘Pinecone Light’ concept, the objects function is to show respect for nature. As an art object, it emphasize on the delicacy and ingenuity of nature. As a contemporary design object, the Funkyfunghi wants to attract people to city forests, enhancing the green experience by added functionalities such as table, lights, chairs.
The treewear collection has to be strapped on a tree. Without a tree present, the objects become useless. When strapped to light poles and urban furniture, the objects generate clear natural references even in an urban environment.
