by Brianna Crandall — August 20, 2012—Vancouver-based Joel Berman Glass Studios has introduced Vite, a “lively and timeless” studio collection of printed glass. Based on original, nature-inspired artwork, Vite is offered in eight signature Berman colorways and three different scales of the pattern. The company says that additional patterns will be added to the collection in the fall.
Vite’s dynamic and organic design is meant to offer visual privacy while transmitting light and creating a cheerful environment suitable for hospitality, retail and corporate interiors. Facilities owners, managers and others will find that specific applications for Vite include divider walls, back splashes, retail displays and door inserts, aiding in both space management/build-out and interior design projects. Vite can also be back-painted or mirrored to suit specific color schemes in designed spaces.
“Our Vite Studio Collection is a great way to introduce well-designed, functional glass into an interior or exterior environment at an attractive price point,” said Joel Berman, founder and president of Joel Berman Glass Studios.
Joel Berman Glass Studios produces Vite by using a permanent ceramic frit printing technology process that also offers limitless possibilities for architects and interior design professionals to custom print patterns, graphics and other artwork onto glass. Eliminating preparation time for artwork significantly reduces the production and lead times for Vite, notes the company.
