The Imperial Monochrome Glass Collection from Cathay Arts Gallery
Award: Shortlist
Shortlist / Book Design / Limited Edition & Fine Binding Books / 2022
A mixture of traditional and modern design approaches were used to showcase the precious legacy of this family of Imperial glass collectors in a limited edition box set. The books pay homage to the father of the family, and aim to follow the father's motto in the design: "Appreciate the form of the glass before the colour". The box set transports the reader back to 1948, when the family began their journey with glass, all the way through to the third generation of family members who have inherited this storied legacy.
