The topics are chosen by the designers and are generally of a religious nature, with symbolic figures or subjects, geometric or floral, or taken from or inspired by famous works of art. In all cases the compositions are using the techniques of stained glass and mosaic, apparently translated into flower petals. The light, instead of filtering through the transparency of glass, is reflected on the petals extolling their many shades of nature. And what a view misses is compensated by the scent of flowers until the early hours of the morning spread intensively throughout the country.
