宣礼塔
Minarets
2009
这一系列玻璃酒器由Kacper Hamilton和Ezgi Turksoy倾心打造。这些以“宣礼塔”命名的作品如同出现在《天方夜谭》中的神奇建筑，设计师的灵感来自伦敦一家玻璃吹制工厂的玻璃残片。他们发现在吹制过程中自然产生瑕疵的每一片玻璃都具有一种别样的美感，这些独特之处无法从通常的计划性制作和流水线式的重复生产中得到。这些玻璃片“拾来物”的形态使两位设计师联想到矗立在伊斯坦布尔俯视整座城市的宣礼塔。
基于此，两位设计师联手创作了8只为一组的独特酒器。酒器的尖顶使用了玻璃残片，可以作为瓶盖，也可以用作酒杯。它们形状各异，呈现出强烈的建筑景观式视觉效果。
Minarets is a series of glass decanters designed by Kacper Hamilton & Ezgi Turksoy. The designers were inspired by scrap glass pieces found at a glass blowers workshop in London. They found a strange beauty within each scrap piece as they contain natural flaws from the process of blowing glass, which cannot be made intentionally and cannot be replicated. The forms of the found pieces have a strong visual reference of an architectural landscape, which reminded the designers of Istanbul with its tall Minarets towering above the rest of the city.
The design duo has created an edition of eight unique decanters, which use the scrap glass pieces as their main feature. They act as stoppers and can also be used as drinking glasses, whilst the large vessels hold the desired liquid.

An uncompromising passion for defining value through emotional experience laid the foundations for KACPER HAMILTON — the London-based internationally acclaimed design practice of directors Kacper Hamilton and Ezgi Turksoy.
Over the years, KACPER HAMILTON has developed a unique style, which is inspired by narratives, tradition and rituals. The studio’s work draws from Hamilton’s intuitive drive to create modernity through bringing elements of the past into a contemporary context. The notion of storytelling plays a significant role in the studio’s design process, as well as the aspiration to create timeless artifacts that carry underlying values of heritage and respect for the past.
Since its establishment in 2009, KACPER HAMILTON has worked with a range of prestigious international brands. Besides providing a range of services across many platforms of design, the studio is now also devoted to developing a range of exclusive KACPER HAMILTON products.
