Each year, The Connaught hotel in Mayfair, London have a Christmas tree in the front of their hotel that celebrates an artist's work. This year, the tree has been designed by British artist Conrad Shawcross. The artist was inspired by visiting the hotel when he was younger and being served delicious food, so he used copper lanterns (like the pans used to cook with) that are designed with geometrical patterns.
