LIGHT FORMS
Light Forms are individual glass blocks that aggregate together in various tessellations to form novel patterns and light effects. These geometric glass units transmit and translate the surrounding light and colors while also working structurally. As an architectural element the prismatic qualities of Light Forms refract and reflect light in novel ways, creating moments where one can pause and reflect.
