Homune Table, 2013

Lasvit

A sophisticated glass design solitaire – a functional table comprised of a hand-blown table leg in amber glass and a hand-blown table top from clear crystal.

“After making studies of the Lasvit range we discovered some incredible glass skills and visiting the workshops in Novy Bor really gave us time to understand the skills of the various craftsman. Having worked on intense industrial design projects over the years, it was incredible to go back to my craft based roots of making one-offs. Over the years we have experimented with fractal structures creating endless constructions, not art but design experimentation, studies into the unknown. We discovered that by blowing glass into only one metal tool and cutting it at different lengths we could make logical and functional structures. The first was this special edition table.”
