CRYSTAL LAMELLAS - SWAROVSKI
The Crystal Lamellas features digitally crafted glass sculptures - manufactured by Swarovski Innovations, through their cutting-edge glass 3D-printing technology and individually coated with their iconic colorization technologies.
The Aurora Borealis effect is a rainbow color light refraction, invented by Christian Dior in the 1950s.
39 unique crystal glass sculptures were showcased on 6 square tiles that are organically 3D-printed from natural quartz sand by Sandhelden.
The Installation was exhibited for the first time at The Gritti Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel in Venice. The installation was part of the Italian Glass Weeks in 2022.
The Lamella Series was inspired by the lamellas and gills of fungi and are digitally designed and generated through an algorithm. The ripples vary in depth and gradient and blend together towards the top and bottom of the shapes, they emphasize the uniqueness of natural objects, where no two are alike.
