Inspirational decorative light design with glass
Glass has a special place in the hearts of all designers. Centuries after it was first made, its unique properties and variety of styles continue to fascinate, with an ability to dominate the attention or subtly blend into the background of any room.
The unique attraction of decorative glass
For elegance, style and a feeling of timeless luxury, there’s nothing that comes close to glass. It defines the look of the world’s top hotels, restaurants, and spas, while museums, stores, and workplaces all benefit from its seamless blend of style and function.
