Image
In February, crowds gathered around Lake Xochimilco in Mexico City and witnessed the release of an endemic salamander called the axolotl, a culturally respected amphibian that is endangered by lake pollution. After a pre-Hispanic flute and incense ritual, the mayors of various wards of the city have stated six axolotl in captivity (AK-) as a statement of efforts to protect the species and their habitat. Dropped (pronounced suh-laa-tl) into the lake. ..

ITALDESIGN “TERRA”, ALTALANGA’s new stem glass

“What we are doing”, described by Nicola Guelfo and Riccardo Matera of Italdesign, is to tell a story through form and to dress it up.
