Welcome to ARBORIALIS

a luminarium - somewhere between a womb and a cathedral

Since 1992 Architects of Air’s luminaria, inspired by the beauty of natural geometry and by sacred architecture, have enchanted millions of visitors around the world.

The luminosity of colour inside ARBORIALIS comes from the light outside shining through the coloured plastic. Each individual piece was cut & put together by hand at our workshop in Nottingham, England.

ARBORIALIS encloses you in an arboreal world of tree-like forms and abundant leaf motifs where immersion in the sounds of nature comes from Michael Morris’s musical homage to the Celtic goddess Danu.

Once inside please take your time and walk slowly. Keep to the paths that are in contact with the ground as the plastic is delicate. There are pods where you can sit down or lie back to absorb the ambience.

Please do take photos, but don’t forget to allow yourself some time to fully relax and explore the space without your phone in your hand. Please respect visitor privacy when taking and sharing photos.
