Title:
Round Lines
Concept Statement:
Using a process of designing through making, 'Round Lines' was developed from an exploration into the possibilities of 3D printing with glass. A series of moulds were printed to explore the possibilities of having a controlled void within the glass, and streamline the process of kiln-casting glass. An efficient workflow eliminating the lost-wax step places these objects in an innovative category of streamlined production and new opportunities with glass. The form and assembly of these glass components combine to insinuate a larger crystallized pattern, drawing on the variation and expressive depth of solid cast glass.
Project Specs:
Process: Direct 3D printed mould for glass casting
Materials: Cast glass, stainless steel, LED strip
Dimensions: w. 6", h. 2"
