Artworks Detail for Stained Glass Window....Glassworks Studio

This project is stunning.  Now complete but not photographed yet. Truly one of our projects whose function is the key reason for this panel's inception.  Sunlight....although we love it..it can be blinding ....

Here is the artwork...final pics to come!

Relaxing privacy panel...leaded glass, kiln fired bubbles, and some artistic flare!.. Glassworks Studio..Toronto.

This week we have been watching a few more projects finish up... Some amazing door lites with great clarity and bevels that blow your mind. (just because they are triple bevelled on both sides..)  A trillium panel for a great client we have worked for previously and some great privacy panels.  

And this panel... a beautiful water inspired privacy panel.. Focusing on the clients'  vision.... water, organic, fluid, free form...to name a few details... full privacy required! 

So we came up with some designs and off we went...  Amanda fired the kiln a few times to create the "bubbles," using the glass that the leaded panel was created from...  NICE!  Every part of this panel flows beautifully and is created with the same glass ..cold worked and kiln fired.  SO COOL..  and custom bevels..  It is amazing how an already beautiful sheet glass seems to become "more so" once fired.. the colors are intensified and glossy!
 Here are the pics...

Custom Design, Custom Build, High End Finish. Custom Leaded Privacy Panels for Oakville Project..

This project is a great way for us to continue our New Year... Working closely with the client and window manufacturer..we ended up focusing our design detail from custom plaster work being created on the ceiling about these 6 panels.  Completely different, very traditional and I think a little gothic..  End result ..."VERY COOL."  We are so excited to see these installed after they return from being sealed in thermal units. 

Our New Year is starting just the way I  like it!  A little crazy in studio..We will be starting full scale on a beautiful front door lite for a project in Mississauga.. two small skylite panels for this same project...with some "bling introduced with the addition of Czech Jewels..NICE."  

We at Glassworks Studio wish you all an amazing holiday break! And all the best in 2014! " I hope this year brings relaxation in what is ....the excitement of big changes and the acceptance of new ideas ...and a little crazy!" ENJOY!

Stained Glass Privacy Panel..."Flower Power," almost complete.

Here is the panel that we showed off  last week...well here is the progress....almost done...thank goodness for glass saws!  Check out the background glass...only a saw could do some of these cuts.  I have to admit the hardest thing we did was reassemble said saw.... which I dismantled over a year ago... Now it runs so well...new bearings, bushings and diamond blade! Sweet!

First 2014 Project on the tables and she is large...

Ok..although we are still working on quite a few projects that need to be wrapped up before Christmas this year ...we are very excited about this project due in the first week of January 2014..  Total window space is over 72" wide and 96" tall, but split into 6 compartments...  High obscurity with a lot of bling...just my style...  Love it.  Here is the initial concept sketch.. and although there will be plenty of changes I know she is going to be amazing.

Privacy Leaded Glass Inserts by "Glassworks Studio," Mississauga.

Here is a site picture of another great project we have completed. These window are located in our client's master bath..  first concern was to significantly increase the privacy in this room and of course we also wanted complete this window treatment beautifully.. 

 End product is a stunning bank of windows with complete privacy -tub positioned directly in front of windows-  with complete natural light transmission..  Glass is the only possible way to achieve all three of these concerns flawlessly.

Custom bevelled privacy panel..PART TWO..

This is why we love what we do...amazing clients and amazing projects!  Fridays is the catch up on paperwork day at the studio for me...by myself...I might meet with a few clients...but this day is suppose to be about reorganizing myself for the next week. "I did some paperwork today, but not much"... I just could not stop trying to capture the awesome light refraction going on in this panel... And although I did get some good shots..it is so hard to get the perfect one...  maybe I should go to photography class... I need some help.

This panel has so much going on..  Final destination is an amazing multi story condo in Toronto.  (Huge windows with tons of natural light...what I would term transitional design detail..) This panel incorporates some of the design detail from original leaded glass panels from the upper floor in the outer border...  deco.  The inner section is an adaptation from the panel we finished a few months ago.. We have incorporated a intense brown to pull in the color of the hardwood throughout the condo.  Except for the greens used in the leaves be have kept the remaining palette clear...crystal clear by using European Glass ..(some Saint Just from France and GNA from Germany.) As mentioned previously Starfire was used in the custom bevels we made and also some PWC Cathedral.   All of my favorites. Besides the beauty of this panel what also is amazing in the interior structure we have creating the flow of glass cut that intersection.  This makes the panel so strong from a structure point of view while adding to the beauty of the piece...  All most admirers see is a beautiful panel... I see a structurally stable "beautiful panel."  ;)

Another Lily.... Stained Glass Windows in Toronto by Glassworks Studio

Well the initial artwork is complete and we are very excited to build this panel..like all of our panels...  This once will be bold....Fresh Spring Green for the leaves... soft white Bullseye for the the flowers, German Cathedral for the the background to create privacy, bevels & and more bevels...  and Opaque High Gloss Black Ripple glass for the inset border...  WOWZER!  (is that even a word??...)  This one is definitely another beauty..  

We love our clients...especially repeats... I believe my first project in this home was almost ten years ago... we are now working on her new leaded glass entryway...  and then a few privacy panels for inside...  

Here is the initial concept presented, approved and now the build.. Awesome!
