3D Studio Line
glass — By Blaine Brownell on January 24, 2006 at 2:14 pmWith the increased sophistication of glass-fabrication technologies, flatness and clarity have typically been the most sought-after traits in architectural glass. However, glass is increasingly explored as a multidimensional, irregular, and textured material. Enlarging the profile and depth of glass enhances its structural properties in addition to its aesthetic complexity.
Joel Berman Glass Studios’ 3D Studio Line consists of a variety of three-dimensional, handcrafted glass panels. Corrugated, Profile, and Trio glass are based on pure geometrical sine-wave and sawtooth profiles. Boards, Bricks, and Sticks represent repeating architectural building blocks. Arrigado and Otto convey sensuous, organic shapes akin to water or crystalline structures.

Awesome!
I think this is a wonderful product. Architects, Designers, and Artists have to be limited only by their individual imaginations.
How versatile is the process?
Can this glass be decoratively enhanced (tinted, sandblasted, etc) for interior application? For example used for dividing walls in a loft, residential or commercial setting, space.
