“Molecules” is a comprehensive lighting collection designed by Ofir Zucker & Albi Serfaty of Aqua Creations in Collaboration with Origami Artist Ilan Garibi. The lighting collection is based on the origami art of Ilan Garibi and consists of floor lamp, table lamp and wall lamp. In designer’s words, “The traditional Japanese art of paper folding begins with a blank sheet of paper which is folded and sculpted by hand into tessellations of individual molecules, with no cuts. The paper used for the origami lamp shades perfectly diffuses the light and easily resists the folding.
A complement and contrast at the same time are the superior wood structures which derive their shape by digital wood carving. The lamps are operated and controlled by touch. In Aqua’s tradition, natural materials and artisanal manufacturing interact with technology; the result is an elegant and luxurious lighting collection.”
