Composed with Milk and Honey hand-blown glass and Bombshell fixtures from East Hotel.
The Old Testament passage in Isiah about hammering swords into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks inspired the tables.
This piece is composed of copper-coated steel, spun on forms used to make WW2 bombshells; hand blown glass; steel pipe; milk Lexan; hand thrown ceramic medallion. Fittings are copper lotus castings.
East Hotel featured a 20’ long Milk and Honey chandelier created from wet plaster, lathe, handblown glass and milk Lexan in the entry lobby bar. JMA developed the milk and honey chandeliers in 2002.
Bombshell tables are located at the elevator lobby The tables were created in 2002-2003.
The ceramic medallion was hand thrown in 1990.
This fixture was composed in 2023 for Ornament Is.
East Hotel is the reincarnation of the bombed out ruins of an old foundry in Hamburg, Germany as a boutique hotel featuring Asian-fusion menus.
DONUTS
The hotel’s center in an indoor/outdoor public space, a donut hole, created by sculpting brick and concrete out of the muscular foundry structure and excavating 24’ of earth from the yard separating the foundry ruins and the new guest room building…
Every detail of East’s architecture, art and design conveys the spirit of the old foundry and the surreality of a westerner’s first immersion in the east.
If architecture in frozen music (danke Göthe) thn ornament is the melody. It is the underlying concept which transforms structural rhythms, spatial and material harmonics and details into a meaningful personality which can create an emotional connection…the melody of architecture is its soul, the spirit of the place.
