Located in a private residence in Rochester, NY; the owners commissioned this piece to bring personal interests to the design of their home in a unique colorful way. A love of music, nature and various cultures informed the foundation of the design using bold colors and abstracted patterns to enhance the experience of the couple's passions in their home environment.
The front entry was replaced with a wider side light to one side designed to be in harmony with the contemporary architecture. The new glass configuration accentuates the space by providing a broad palette for the artwork to breath.
This project utilizes a new technique best known in Germany called laminated glass.
It offers a more contemporary aesthetic to the traditional stained glass method of fabrication. This technique has been used on large glass facades of buildings, but it can also be used to create windows, doors, shower doors, railings, table tops, wall treatments and large scale sculptures covering partial or whole areas for interior and exterior applications.
On sunny days, color transforming shadows add energy and excitement to the home that are ever transforming throughout the seasons and time of day.
