Mayor's Office Cast Glass
Chicago civic glass object
A cast-glass civic object for Chicago's Mayor's Office at City Hall, using map relief, star details, texture, and light to carry a sense of place.
This Mayor's Office project brought together cast glass, civic iconography, and light in a compact architectural object.
The piece uses a map-like relief, star references, and the thickness of glass to hold information without flattening it into signage.
Process images from the pour show the physical intensity behind the quieter finished object: heat, mold work, annealing, finishing, and the final edge-lit read.
