TWIST, 2001
Edition: Vista Alegre/ Atlantis;
Material: Crystal
Stackable bowls designed using a technology employed at the time at Atlantis: the pressing of crystal. The purpose was to make the most out of a mechanical process with multiple constraints; by operating a subtle spin on the counter mould, a subtle variation in wall thickness is obtained, causing an optical ripple effect in the piece’s geometry.
