I love it when projects bring together previous ideas and palettes in new ways.
The next project in the studio is a commissioned 3 panel visual feature featuring a bold glass-forward color rhythm with an inset of text forms. Client relevant information is incorporated in text form and their graphic chevrons are cut in glass.
I’ve seen the chevron as a short hand signifier for movement and motion and momentum. I created sketches a number of years ago using a color rhythm with chevron as negative space.

I’m loving coming back to the chevron shape—this time hand cut in glass—and color rhythm and also integrating my SCAN concept with inset text elements with content relevant to the client’s team.

Embracing the materials of contemporary architecture—glass and concrete—my work captures the energy of the urban environment. I use glass because of its unique capacity to catch light and engage viewers. The interplay of glass and light is ephemeral but the pieces themselves are enduring.
