Trend USA is premiering LIBERTY, a new collection of transparent glass mosaic tile designed by Giulio Candussio. The hand cut glass tile containing a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled content, is available in 12 colorways reflecting the international designers responsible for early 20th century decorative styles. Andrea Di Giuseppe, CEO of Trend believes the unique character of tile demonstrates Trend's commitment to "reconstruct historical movements in contemporary ways. We thrive on collaboration with artists like Candussio to allow their vision to flourish and become part of today's language of design."
According to Candussio, "the transparent quality of the glass creates a balance of essential shapes, modular rhythms and color. The result is a continuous and changing bright and chromatic vibration that comes from the surface itself." Candussio is the creator of "Iridescent Lightning", the fiery bolt of mosaic energy installed at the temporary PATH station in New York City. LIBERTY is his first collection for Trend Group.
