We also tried to find the right balance between the formative aspect and functional aspect during the process of reinterpreting the inspirations from the movements and rhythm of Tango into a lighting.

Re: Bottle- Spinning series Grigo Glass Studio X Sunmin Park

We used a cold working technique to reprocess glass and attached different kinds of glass together to complete the product. Also, we tried to come up with a design that can be developed by reprocessing a single bottle to make better use of resources based on the concept of zero waste, and this led us to the design of “Re: Bottle - Spinning Series” cup which uses the blowing method to melt the upper part of the bottle and twirl it around the lower part. It means that resources circulate in a cycle while staying around us.
