The Quartz Glass Museum is a speculative rebranding for the existing Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York.
The dynamism of the identity highlights the dualities of glass’s inherent qualities — hard, yet flexible; strong, yet fragile; beautiful, yet utilitarian. The visual and tactile qualities of glass are visually represented through use of pattern, transparency and digital fabrication.

Under instruction of Richard Rose
Monoqle (pronounced monocle) is a camera app that mimics glass textures and treatments as lenses for users’ phone photography. User submitted photographs can be displayed in a moderated exhibit with more information about the glass techniques at the Quartz Museum.
