Hilla Shamia
Biography of Hilla
Hilla Shmia is an Israeli-based designer with a B.Des. from Holon Institute of Technology, Industrial Design Department.
Hilla developed a unique technique that joins the materials of aluminum and wood.
She created a series of furnitures based on this technique called - Wood Casting.
The process of Wood Casting preserves that natural form of the tree trunk while still allowing the molten aluminum to flow into the crevices of the wood, slightly burning the area where the two materials meet.
Each creation is a One-of-a-Kind piece.
