DESIGN INNOVATION

THE CRYSTAL HOUSES PROJECT represents a 2016 Amsterdam design initiative by MVRDV architects, which featured a transparent façade installation of over 6,500 solid glass bricks, mimicking the original 19th-century brickwork. This innovative self-supporting glass masonry system was developed with TU Delft and other partners to preserve historical character while creating a modern, upmarket environment. This project was initially for a Chanel store, but it later reopened with a new tenant, Hermès, in 2019. This photo perfectly captures the luminous quality of the innovative use of materials. This is NOT AI! The architectural design industry has always been way ahead of the curve on initiatives for next-level design immersion experiences.
