The Story

Monoblokk – A vase in press glass designed by Anderssen & Voll.

The name points at one of the core values of Nedre Foss – we make solid objects with one material running throughout a continuous shape. The stretched and narrow footprint of Monoblokk makes it a perfect fit for window sills and shallow shelves.

Making a symmetrical shape in blown glass is an exercise already done by thousands of craftspeople for literally thousands of years. From a designer’s point of view it’s a bit like designing a stackable chair in plywood and steel tube; it feels hard to be original and you quickly run into the limitations of the material.That is why leaving axial symmetry behind and deciding on press glass as a manufacturing technique, was really liberating to this process. The inspiration were gathered from glass panels, aquariums and concrete road dividers.

Approximately 2200g of high-grade silicate glass.
H 170 mm, W 204 mm, D 75 mm
Handwash only
