Anu Penttinen’s glass art tiles

Discovered in the Finnish Design offsite show in Chelsea market during ICFF: a cool installation by Nounou Design, the studio of glass artist Anu Penttinen. Called City Plan, it’s a wall relief made up of boldly colored handmade tiles (each fused from multiple sheets of glass) that affix to walls and vertical surfaces via magentic backing. Thus the piece can expand or be reconfigured as desired–or, presumably, as you have enough money to buy more pieces!

Anu originally launched the concept last fall at the Habitare Design Fair in Helsinki; this new design was inspired by–and references the urban energy of–NYC, baby!
