"In transparency, we see the whole of an object - a ghost of the shape presents itself, revealing much more than full opacity could. The Mo.du.lo Collection by Etereo for StudioTwentySeven revels in this principle, drawing from the radical spirit of 1970s architectural glass to explore materiality, balance, and light. Across the collection, a metallic interior structure is partially revealed between solid blocks of deep green glass, creating a dialogue between visibility and concealment, structure and surface."
"To start, the Modulo Console pulls a striking profile, its thickness and heft contrasting with the refined linearity of the form. Characterized by clean, minimalist lines and glass cube construction on all three sides, the console reveals a metallic structure running through its core. This internal spine is not only a visual anchor but a functional necessity - glass in this form carries significant weight, requiring precise engineering beneath the surface."
Mo.du.lo centers on transparency and the revealing interplay between glass and internal structure, taking cues from 1970s architectural glass. The series comprises five sculptural pieces in deep green glass, each block showing subtle variations in tone and luminosity so no two compositions are identical. A partially exposed metallic interior vein provides both structural support and a visual dialogue between visibility and concealment. The Modulo Console emphasizes thickness and linearity while relying on a concealed engineered spine to bear weight. The Modulo Floor Lamp stacks interlocked glass bricks around a luminous, polished-metal core, creating vertical repetition and controlled diffusion of light. The pieces are presented as limited-edition collectible designs balancing modular repetition and individuality.
