Claridge's Hotel Reveals Festive Installation by Apple's Jony Ive

Why? Does it feature sound effects and artful, changing lighting, and is it positioned in a specific context both in terms of location and traditional time in the calendar? Do please tell me more about your thinking behind this invisible iPhone case you claim to have.
No-one will be able to afford decorations when we are all on zero hours contracts and competing against out-sourcing to Mars.
We'll be lucky to have a tree and we shall count our lucky stars the global overlords have allowed us that much festive cheer.
Why isn't there a 5 minute video with a voice over from Ive explaining the decoration process?
They be like: "Did you forget to decorate the tree?"

The bare tree is meant to symbolise the roadmap for desktop Mac announcements.
Galleries Lafayette does amazing trees.
But I like KaDeWe Berlin. They got pimping and crazy Santas!
Nice to see Liberace can still get gigs even after his death. I am a bit over the whole minimalist thing now. I am going all out for excess this Chrimbo. That Jonny Ive tree is a bit underspecced for the money imho.
This should have been played when they revealed this awful, self indulgent waste.
OH MY GOD, YOU KILLED CHRISTMAS, YOU B*STARD!
(Clearly the above is a SouthPark reference.....)
I like it a lot. Very original, although it does remind me of the 'rainforest canopy' Atlanta airport installed in a boring underground walkway this summer:
(BTW, It's between concourses A and B. I love it: Makes me smile every time I walk through.)

The trees are definitely thinner than last year xmas.

Nice!
Better than the creepy murals they had at Denver International!
If Jony had included lights, would they have been soldered onto the tree?

The Christmas Tree isn't decorated. He failed at the goal of the project. He manipulated the project to be something he wants and used the words, "enormous respect for tradition" to cover it up. This was nothing short of an enormous disrespect of tradition.
Yes, you got it. He should not be allowed to do anything else but design the Macs. Like forever!!
I believe Mickey Mouse could bring magical experience.
I'm waiting next years edition by Ive when the trees are 23% deforested and there are no entrances because courage
You do so the irony that the first posts like these actually lead to the trolling ?
Maybe don't encourage it?
I think the bare trees could have at least used some more lighting (maybe from within/below). They seem too dark and looming. Otherwise it's kind of a cool setup.
(Braces for next wave of amateur MacRumors editors criticizing post placement).
[doublepost=1479663462][/doublepost]Looks like a scene out of a Doctor Who Christmas special.
"Hey Ive, how should we design this dongle?" "Just make it a square, and stop bothering me, I'm designing my next xmas tree"
