Another great video from the students at ECAL. Hot Tools was an exhibit during Milan Design Week by students in their second year of the Master’s in Product Design under the direction of Alexis Georgacopoulos. Explains designer Ronan Bouroullec, who led the workshop: “After a visit lasting a few hours to the workshop of glassblower Matteo Gonet in Basle, students had to design and produce tools and utensils, and invent scenarios that would create an interesting effect in Matteo’s artisanal glass-making process. We had five days to create a successful test palette.” The result is a set of experimental glass pieces that overtly showcases the art of glassblowing, as well the process that went into each individual piece.
