Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Crypto is a modular lighting collection since it can expand vertically as well as horizontally, depending on how the single glass elements that compose each structure are distributed. The canopy of the items that expand horizontally is innovative in terms of design. The entire collection adapts to any location: either just a private house as well as hotels and all wide spaces. Light can come from spotlights placed above the glass pieces or else it can be inside the glass elements.
Dimensions & Packaging: Thanks to their modular entity, Crypto installations can largely vary in terms of sizes, starting from the diameter of a single element which is 200mm and going to more complex compositions that can extend up to 3500mm horizontally and even more, or else 9000mm vertically and still even more. Light can come as either G9 bulbs or built-in LED inside the glass elements or else it can be designed as LED spotlights above the glass elements.

Production Technology: The peculiarity of Crypto items stands in their vibrant blown glass that enables light to spread in many directions in a very soft way. Production occurs by means of a completely handcrafted process which leads to a different final result each time. There are 7 different moulds with 3 different cuts, for a total of 21 shapes, to which also different shades can be added. Shades are purposely shown as more intense in the higher part, close to the light source and less vivid towards the final lower part of each glass element.
Design Challenge: The most complex challenge during the creation process was finding the balance between the calibration of the moulds and the glass blowing method to obtain the exact wanted vibrant texture. What guided the process was the concept of molecular structures where singles elements combine to give one whole item, on one side and the know-how of artisan glass master on the other side.
Research: The research behind this product is focused on design and functionality, by means of aesthetics and materials. The main objective was to create an innovative glass texture, defined as vibrant: an hybrid version between a totally smooth surface and a hammered one. To reach such goal, empirical experimentation was carried out, involving two main tools: glass moulds in different materials and management of the glass blowing process. The result is a glass type capable of breaking light in a soft way, differently from the classical frosted glass.
Inspiration: The idea that inspired the design for the Collection Crypto originates from nature, recalling ice stalactites in particular; yet here, differently to nature, the single elements end up being empty as the hand blown glass becomes the real protagonist.
Project Duration: The design project was carried out in Venice, in particular in the island of Murano, known for its artisan glass masters and it took approximately 6 months to get to the first final result starting from the initial concept.
Operation Flow: The end user is the one who has the last word on how the final installation will be composed and therefore it is the final client who ultimately adds value to the finished product, adapting it to a specific location and to personal taste: the beauty of this composition is in fact that the final result is always different.
