transSglass is a collection of glassware made
from recycled wine and beer bottles. The idea
behind tranSglass is to use what we have. We
take away, we appropriate, we transform. Hard,
sharp, clean forms, original colors as found within
the bottles, allowing s to express our positive
attitude towards the environment.
Originally tranSglass was handcrafted by Emma
Woffenden and Tord Boontje in their London
workshop. Subsequently the artists felt the need to
share the beauty and the values behind tranSglass
with everyone who shared his design principals.
tranSglass is now part of the MoMA New York
permanent Design Collection.
Due to their recycled and handcrafted nature,
each product will show slight variations in size and
color.
