Art Makes the Architecture
Collaborating with artist Danny Lane, monumental glass was engineered into the architecture. A part of the integral fabric of the building, the work becomes immersive as the public moves through sheets of fluid glass.

A Feat of Engineering
To achieve this feat, the artists' studio and curators worked with leading engineers during the work's construction. The sculptures pushed the possibilities of glass art to its limit, re-imagining it as a structural component of the space.
Carving Glass
Countless sheets of stacked glass are carved following a complex structural design. In many ways, it is a traditional process of crafting the surface of glass – an artist's workshop process, that requires hours of cutting, carving and polishing.

Sculpting with Light
Carving becomes a creative statement, as the prismatic qualities of glass are revealed in a spectrum of dazzling colours. The glass sculptures were curated with sensitivity to light sources, bringing them to life for the public.
