PLAYFUL PATCHWORK
Stained glass isn't the most uncommon material to find in a home - after all, it's probably as synonymous with Victorian-era front doors as it is with church windows. But the way designers are approaching this traditional craft focuses on modern colour combinations and forms. From sliding doors to shower screens, manufacturers are beginning to offer a niche range of glass products in colour for those looking to make more of an impact with their home's design. These Sherazade Patchwork screens, created by designers Piero Lissoni and Suzanne Tick for Glas Italia, offer a practical, modern take on stained glass for those who want to to embrace colour wherever they can.
