The Production
ELOA is a modular lighting system of handmade glass objects with different shapes and their site-specific positions in space. The glass objects are produced in a Glashütte in the Czech republic. ELOA combines the craft of ancient glassblowing with a simple, yet distinct design.
To achieve the large size of the glass objects while working without forms requires a high level of refined craftsmanship and skill, which can only be performed by a few master glassblowers in Bohemia. Each step and each production is supervised on site by the designer and created in close collaboration with the glassblowers.
Each object is individual and unique. The different forms are combined with a large range of colors. Highly pigmented glass sticks made in Germany are individually combined with the glass objects during the process of blowing. This process, as well as the different thickness of glass, create the magic color gradients which characterize ELOAs products and give each object its special aura.
