Co-curated by COORDINATION ASIA, the second edition of the successful design exhibition Keep it Glassy launched earlier this year at the Shanghai Museum of Glass. Featuring a large body of international talent, such as Nendo, MVRDV, Dominic Wilcox, BCXSY and Studio KDSZ (pictured), the exhibition aims to explore the many ways in which glass may inspire designers.
“A conscious choice was made to focus on displaying concepts or projects, instead of mere objects in glass. The intriguing stories and smart strategies that hide beyond the surface of the design pieces show that designers make use of the specific traits of glass to shape their ideas for a better future. In the exhibition, four rooms highlight four different angles: Adornment, Sustainability, Innovation, and Preservation”.
The show displays “more than 30 views on how we can build a better future through glass. [It] does not take a standpoint on which solutions are best or most promising. On the contrary, it aims to show the vast pallet of ways glass can be applied to move forward in time. This fits…the vision of the Shanghai Museum of Glass which, now in her fourth year of operation, still manages to find fresh and new perspectives to explore and share the infinite possibilities of glass”.
