There’s something seriously magical about coloured glass
Lope Home’s hand-made tumblers and pitchers are particularly enchanting. Their fluid designs capture the light and reflect a unique gradient, their shape appearing to change like the ebb and flow of moving water.
The jewel-like colours and mercurial qualities of this very special glassware could have us whiling away a whole afternoon hydrating!
We caught up with the talented Liz from Lope Home to find out more about making magic.
Hi Liz, Our Series is called 'Meet the Maker,' what do you make?
I design homewares. I started off Lope with designing bed linen and towels, then moved to rugs and now I design glass.
Please tell us about the journey to Lope. Did you study? What drew you into the medium of glass?
Lope started as a project between a friend from uni and myself. We both studied Textiles Design and were looking for a creative outlet once finishing. I had and still have such a great creative community around me that it then just naturally evolved by collaborating with different friends who work with different mediums.
Glass is such a fun medium to work with as it takes on a soft, liquid-like aesthetic. I really enjoy the malleability of it and how easily it can transform to fit any home environment. I was also drawn to the idea of creating one-off and unique pieces.
What does your creative process look like?
