# Blown Glass Bubbletecture The Imaginary Architecture Collection Houses Some Amazing Talent By Alex Scott | Published 2010-03-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/imaginary-architecture References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2010/03/10/imaginary-architectures-by-el-ultimo-grito/) & [eugstudio](http://www.eugstudio.com/) There are a few forms of art that never fail to blow me away: ice sculptures, sand sculptures and blown glass. When you see those giant pieces of blown glass hanging in a hotel lobby or casino, it hurts your brain to figure out just how they created those. The Imaginary Architecture Collection contains some of those mind-blowing pieces. Created by Spanish designers El Ulitmo Grito, the Imaginary Architecture Collection features an array of [tubes and bubbles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pavilion-set), each one representative of different building characteristics. The Imaginary Architecture Collection will be featured at the [Aram Gallery in London](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galeria-house). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Blown Glass Artwork:** Opportunities exist to create new and exciting forms of blown glass artwork that could be displayed in public spaces and galleries. - **Architectural Interpretations:** Trend towards interpreting architecture and buildings through art, opening up a new market for artists with this particular skill set. - **Art in Public Spaces:** Growing interest in displaying art in public spaces provides opportunities for blown glass artists to create large-scale installations. ### Where This Applies - **Art Industry:** Artists and designers in the blown glass space may consider ways to innovate and create unique pieces that stand out amongst competitors. - **Hospitality Industry:** Hotels and casinos could benefit from commissioning blown glass art installations in their lobbies or other public spaces to enhance the overall guest experience. - **Architecture and Design Industry:** The architecture and design industry may partner with blown glass artists to provide unique interpretations of buildings, bridges, and other structures in order to differentiate their projects from competitors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Inflated-Illusion Ceramic Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blow-up.md) - [Paper-Made Mosaic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/real-life-architecture-exhibition.md) - [Balloon-Like Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-blown.md) - [Structural Blown Glass Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lokum-collection.md) - [Artful Garden Inflatable Spheres](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/this-is-air.md) - [Sculptural Glass Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-glass-bottles.md) - [Bubblegum Street Art Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hubbabubbabuilding.md) - [Intricate Glass Whisky Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luminary-no2-rare-sculpture.md) - [Candy-Colored Glass Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wave-ii.md)
