BLOCKS containers
Cirva (FR)
2012
The BLOCKS pieces are made using a glass casting method inspired by the well-known lost-wax technique. Here, instead of using wax, each piece is made and assembled by hand using Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) board as base material. Originally a feather-light and inexpensive industry material, the EPS models have been cast into a heavyweight, precious and skilfully crafted item. Developed with Cirva (FR).
