Notes
Design drawings include both design images and photographs showcasing variations of handle placement with cardboard models. Ransmeier maintains that the handles are the fundamental communication of the human hand with the object. Each of the nine handle placements is paired with a photograph demonstrating use. Final drawing includes measurements with text regarding "working strategy".
Leon Ransmeier collaborated with gaffer Eric Meek July 7-8, 2012 during his time at GlassLab at Governors Island. This document helped in the creation GlassLab object GL 227. The actual cardboard prototypes have been accessioned as GL 250.
GlassLab provides an opportunity for designers and glassmakers to collaborate by using hot glass as a catalyst for innovation.
