Mould making for the first Thames Glass carafe and tumbler prototypes. It was amazing to get to work with specialist mould makers and glass blowers to make this collection, along with the production team @heredesign ✨ Made using waste shells from @officialthameswater and materials sourced in and around the river Thames, the aim of this project was to look at glass making on a local scale, inspired by ancient methodologies and working with local communities, local materials and local production methods. The design was also centred around the idea of being reminiscent of water, and to promote drinking tap water rather than buying plastic bottles. . . . #thamesglass #materialfutures #centralsaintmartins #heredesign #workingwithwaste #thameswater #localmaterials #localcommunity #glassalchemy #glassblowing #mouldmaking #madeintheminimelt #futurearchiology
