    Designer Lies-Marie Hoffmann recently dropped a series of sculptural benches made from Elm-trunks throughout the streets of Stockholm. Dubbed "Homage to the Elm trees", the project investigated how sculptural sustainable designs can influence environmental awareness and the public's appreciation of nature. The result is a series of immense, chunky seats that encourage us to look at nature with fresh eyes while thinking and acting differently towards it.
