Joyful Glassware
Glassware
This sculptural drink-ware set is colorful, naive and it will decorate our tables while also being functional.
The glassware reflects the designer’s need to surround itself with more colorful materials and shapes and work with therapeutic methods that bring her joy in the design process.
While being isolated at home, drinking every day from the same glass or eating from the same plate became monotonous, and Irina felt the need to explore the shapes of these everyday objects she is surrounded by.
Irina enjoys playing with materials and starting to work on something without planning on the resulting object. This process is very different than her everyday design process, where she usually starts from an idea or when she knows what the final product has to be. In this case, she started playing with paper and made collages while imagining how her everyday objects should look if she wanted them to bring a little bit of joy into her home.
