Heart of glass
Architectural elements and the luminosity of glass come together in the work of renowned glass artist Walter Gordinier
In a fast-fix, mass-produced world, individuality is a standout commodity. Introducing the color and texture of custom glass artworks to an interior, whether corporate or residential, brings both personality and aesthetic pleasure to the space.
Internationally respected artist Walter Gordinier creates individualistic glass elements that inject life and brilliance to an interior. His work graces a variety of public spaces from the Hoyt Street Plaza hotel to the Pacific University and a plethora of well-heeled private residences.
Over the years, Gordinier has refined his art to create everything from cascading glass waterfalls, frozen in time, to balustrading in the forms of glass tree branches and soaring translucent walkways.
"From early in my career I have been fascinated by the color and lightplay of the material and have even had my cast glass structurally certified," he says. "This means I can incorporate my art into the architectural bones of an interior as a result, these works bring art and architecture together to create a vivid, translucent point of difference."
