Planar 1/1

“Inspired by the interplay between illuminated glass and the light it casts - and how that changes its environment - my design for the Planar turntable generates constantly-shifting colour shadows according to the movement of both the lid and the light shining through it.” 

Chrissie Macdonald makes bespoke stained glass pieces using traditional techniques and exploring new ones. She also works with a variety of materials to create playful, handcrafted, sculptural pieces for illustration, installation, exhibition and events, regularly collaborating with photographers, designers and members of the multidisciplinary studio Peepshow Collective. These joint projects include creative workshops that explore print, collage, animation, costume, model-making and celebrity vegetables.

Selected clients: New York Times, Newsweek, TIME, Creative Review, the Museum of Childhood, The Guardian, Somerset House, Royal London Hospital, UCLH, The Finnish Institute, Selfridges, The House of Fairytales and the Victoria & Albert Museum.
