Etched Dome

 

Private residence, London 2020

1.7m²

 

The second of two curved glass domes we produced for a private London residence.

 

We did everything in house; creating moulds to bend the glass to shape in the kiln; designing, cutting and applying the vinyl resists; sandblasting each segment.

 

The only element we didn't do ourselves was the hand-blown central jewel, which was done for us by a scientific glass blower.

 

We worked closely with architects Michaelis Boyd Associates to develop the concept and with  Shepley Engineers to supply the brass framework.
