Due to this technique, diaphanous walls without a concrete skeleton or lead cames can be designed. All steps of the production process have been developed and improved during 50 years of experience in working with glass. From designing the work, designing the mould, cutting the glass and putting it in the furnace, controlling the cooling process to finishing and mounting the glass - all relevant process takes place at the own atelier in Southern Bavaria. CHALLENGE: The challenge is to focus and guide the light to the desired spots in the glass.

NAME: GLASLICHTKLANG PROFILE: GLASLICHTKLANG developes various glasses and glass sculptures for lighting applications for architects in public and private spaces. The brand, that was created by artist Florian Lechner, uses unique self constructed fusing ovens to produce large architectural glass objects. One major focus in the work of GLASLICHTKLANG is the combination of glass, light and sound. In recapturing the physicality of glass, Florian Lechner found a possibility for making it a vehicle for light, in which light is invested with a virtually tactile quality. For Florian Lechner and his team, glass is not only a glowing material, but also a sounding material. Florian Lechner is currently putting on Sound Performances, improvising with a number of very different musicians. GLASLICHTKLANG is based in Nußdorf am Inn/ Southern Germany, only a few miles away from the Austrian Border. |
