Swarovski promoting crystal sculptures - Yves Behar and Vincent Duysen

I went to the amazing blog Design Crisis by Karly Hand and Erin Williamson searching for a post they did five months ago. I got lost among so many creative and amazing work they have there. I share with many people a kind of mania that is admiring the decomposition of colors crystals do and I love playing with some little pieces making drawings with the lights of the rainbow colors. They all disappear and vanish and it is part of the game. Not for these artists. You can find at Swarowsky site many amazing works done by architects, designers, artists and even some people who are from a different field, like Lenny Kravitz, has contributed. It is hard to chose two and these are here inviting you to see more if you feel like. Left: "Cascade" by Vincent Van Duysen, an opulent 3-metre chandelier with cascading Swarovski crystal drops that flow down like a waterfall. Right: "Morpheus" by Yves Behar made of 30.000 stones of crystals.
