Who Says Water and Electricity Don’t Mix?

Everyone knows water and electricity can’t mix, not in a friendly way at least, so here’s the next best, beautiful thing. Japanese firm Torafu Architects have put together a mesmerizing aqua-inspired display dubbed Water Balloons. Light bulbs made of recycled material called 9lass have been hand blown to mirror water droplets, each one kitted out with an LED which is diffused by air bubbles within, further magnifying the watery effect.
