Innovative lighting: Ayala Serfaty
Aqua Creations, the brain child of Israeli designer Ayala Serfaty is a unique combination of beauty, functionality and art. Her work, which is heavily inspired by organic forms found in nature and undersea themes; is reflective of well known glass artist Dale Chihuly.
Ayala Serfaty’s silk collection is one of her most marketable lines, here she shapes the fabric to create these sculptural floor lamps.
