Santambrogio Milano of Italy uses sheets of tempered glass to create ultra-modern glass furniture. Shown here are a square shaped sofa, lounge space and a low-slung bed with contrasting black cushions that soften the sleek icy stepped platform bases.
The size of these pieces is massive and would need to be in a huge space, but I can imagine them in a beautiful California contemporary beach house.
Implications - Homeowners are increasingly looking for furniture and interior design pieces that evoke a sense of calm. This translucent sofa, bed and lounge space has a transparent form factor that isn't jarring to the senses; its gentle sloping curves similarly evoke the beauty of an ice sculpture.
