The Sample Avenue relates to the image of an imaginary street with average houses. Like the storeys of a house the components are stacked onto each other, each building a small architecture. Valuing the worth of material and craftsmanship three glass parts are made from one single mould. Separated by wooden bowls the showcases put a focus on the stored, presented and protected content.
