Is a video of workers installing "incredible white cherry blossom epoxy flooring" in a home real? No, that's not true: The 12-second time-lapse clip showing five workers pouring liquid epoxy over a real tree branch to create a transparent floor is a "solely digital" representation of "creativity and innovation, not physical products," according to the website linked to the video. Inspiring Designs' website say the company "crafts intricate virtual blueprints" for furniture that is not real, but is "rooted in the very real wonders of the world around us."
