blimp
The unbearable lightness of glass.
The unbearable lightness of glass.
This stunning and massive crystal cloud floats in space with the lightness of a zeppelin. Blimp is the largest lighting piece our master glassmakers are capable of creating by hand. Blowing into a metal form produces a graceful giant that is a testimony to human ingenuity and top-level craftsmanship. Although this creation is a dominant element in any interior, the clear version feels both light and airy. Its honey-golden version then fills the interior with a pleasant ambient light. The Blimp Collection is the result of BOMMA’s first international collaboration with a team of Swiss designers who masterminded it upon their first experience with designing glass. The success of this double premier exceeded all expectations.
BIG-GAME consists of Augustin Scott de Martinville, Grégoire Jeanmonod and Elric Petit. The design trio describe their work as simple, functional and optimistic. BIG-GAME’s work is very accessible, charming and above all useful. The studio has received numerous awards for its work, including the Swiss Design Award, iF design award, Wallpaper Design Award, Good Design Award, Hublot Design Award and Design Preis Schweiz. Objects from the BIG-GAME workshop are also included in the Museum fur Gestaltung, the Musée du Grand-Horn, the Centre Georges Pompidou and MoMA.
