In Between for Inframince Designed by BCXSY
I bumped into this superb collection earlier which really intrigued me, a series designed by BCXSY and was commissioned by Japanese company Inframince. It's part of project called 'tile_objects 01', which I don't know too much about myself, but I do know that Inframince have got together with a few
Glass Sculptures by Bert Frijns
So last week was pretty hectic here, we were running between London and the office for Design Week, but it was great to step outside the bubble and get inspiration in other creative fields. One particular place where we picked up a few ideas was at the Victoria and Albert Museum, although not packed
Archive Imagery from the Hadeland Glassverk Factory
Putting together yesterday's post on Andrew Geller and getting my hands on the vintage photographs was really exciting for me, it's perhaps my favourite post I've put together here.

You may know them for one particular collaboration that took place with Alvar Aalto,
Alvar Aalto Vases
I’ve become quite spontaneous with my posts here on the site, I used to use this space as a place to showcase random bits and bobs with no direct meaning but as time’s passed my taste has become much for refined and the direction of this website has become a lot clearer. I guess I want to offer
Bespoke Lighting by The Lindsey Adelman Studio
I really enjoyed watching the process that Bocci undertook in creating their wonderful bespoke lights last week, so I went on the hunt for a little more handcrafted glassware this morning with my eventual destination being the Lindsey Adelman Studio in New York. After taking a short while to browse
