State of the Art Cast Glass
Benches. This magnificent state of the art cast glass
benches is a first in functional architectural glass design.
Elegant yet Bold. Transparent yet Massive. “A Visual
Contradiction."
“Form and Function are the two
pillars of Design. My Medium of choice is Always Glass."
Robert Kaindl THE JOURNEY
I visualized this project
three years ago unfortunately, the technology had not been developed
to create such a massive glass structure - until now. The daunting scale
of my desire to create a unique masterwork would not be compromised.
Perfect Cast Glass Planks
without bubbles or any imperfections, I was told by industry experts that
my expectations of this project was simply impossible. I was
committed to my vision and embarked on a 38 month
journey, working tirelessly with a custom Kiln production team for
15 months. Finally, I had my custom Casting Kiln and the perfectly Crystal Clear Glass
that I visualized from the beginning. 96 inches Long (8 feet
long) x 7 inches Wide x 2.5 inches Thick. These massive glass
components for this table weighs 2,000 pounds.
 THE FOUNDATION
Each virtually indestructible Stainless
Steel Base is custom made by hand with individual flat sheets of
Stainless Steel (not extruded tubing). Each edge is welded and
finely worked with all edges finished to perfect right angles,
available in multiple finishes to include high gloss nickel chrome to a
soft burnished industrial surface. The surfaces facing the
Crystal Glass will have a proprietary
integrated internal lighting system, which
provides a stunning controllable ambient glow throughout each
Crystal Glass component maximizing the
Prisms Spectrums Effects.
GLASS IMAGE EXAMPLES
(above right):
Perfectly Crystal Clear Crystal Glass sample (no bubbles, no
cords, or imperfections) 3 inches
Thick by 7
inches Wide and 16 inches Long. The actual finished pieces are
96 inches (8 feet) Long and 2.5 inches Thick by 7 inches Wide, with
the possibilities of being up to 6 inches thick. Each brilliant
Crystal Glass plank is
a study in perfection, crystal clear, with a high sheen polished and
beveled edges to produce the most brilliant prismatic spectrum
possible.
