Sticky Glass

Sticky is a New York-based design company that specializes in multi-functional, performative, and collaborative glasswork, developed by Grace Whiteside. All of their glass is hand-blown and often made to order in Brooklyn, New York.

When glass is in its molten state it has the consistency of honey and becomes super sticky when in contact with itself and sometimes other materials. This property of glass allows for endless experimentation when constructing forms as the glass can act as a base structure as well as its own glue.

Whiteside’s designs entertain these possibilities through form and function as they allow the glass to perform acts of fluidity, softness, and tackiness.
