Each of these stained glass artworks is a magnificent display of recognizable geometric lines, elegantly capturing stylized motifs inspired by nature.
Within the lines
Frank Lloyd Wright explores the delicate interplay between interior and exterior, investigating the art of harmonizing a building with its natural surroundings. Rather than seeking to mimic nature, he abstracts and interprets its essence.
He delves into repetitive patterns found in nature, utilizing the constraints of stained glass as guiging principles. Throughout the design process, the function of the windows remains at the forefront: striking a balance between providing privacy and welcoming light. It is a design philosophy that resonates with us at Wolvis.
Stained glass is characterized by the graphic of elegantly outlined geometric shapes. Even when translated into textiles, those patterns remain recognizable as stained glass windows.
