for Lasvit

During this year’s Salone, an exhibition of three designs by three designers including Mathieu Lehanneur and nendo under the art direction of designer Fabio Novembre showcased the artistry of venerable Czech Bohemian glass maker Lasvit’s glassblowers.

We were assigned the abstract theme ‘cocoon’, and asked to create work that would directly convey the quixotic appeal of glass as something that is impractical and incomplete, but provides a breath of fresh air, opening up new possibilities.We decided to take the brief in a playful direction, and to suggest both breathing and the incomplete by displaying the metal pipes used by glassblowers, still attached to the glass objects that they were used to make. By turning the pipes into flowers and branches and the glass into a vase, we literally turned convention on its head, making flowers blooming in vases into vases blooming from flowers to represent the flower bulbs that draw nutrients from plants through photosynthesis and store new life.

在今年2011米兰设计展览上，日本设计公司Neodo的这件作品展示了捷克波希米亚玻璃制造商Lasvit吹制玻璃工艺品绝美的艺术性。Neodo抽到的主题是“茧”，将表达一种模糊，虚幻的玻璃魅力，同时要求清新新颖。设计朝着俏皮的风格发展， “花瓶”的上端被做出了像是开放的花朵和树枝的形状，宛如在阳（灯）光下盛开的新植物，下面的圆圆发光部分好像会越长越大。
