Cafesjian Center for the Arts features a selection of Swarovski
Crystal Palace chandeliers, designed by Vincent Van Duysen, Tord
Boontje, Georg Baldele, Michael Anastassiades and Diller Scofido +
Renfro Studio, Cafesjian Center for the Arts informed.

Swarovski Crystal Palace is a revolutionary project that has aimed to
create signature interpretations of light and design using the emotive
medium of cut crystal. Whilst celebrating and reinterpreting the rich
traditions of the chandelier, Swarovski Crystal Palace has broken
barriers, played with the rules and opened a new chapter in the
history of lighting, art and design. Swarovski Crystal Palace has
worked with some of the world’s foremost and collectable designers.

Designed by Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen for Swarovski’s
Crystal Palace series in 2003, the Cascade chandelier is a stunning
work in the collection. Vincent Van Duysen’s aesthetic is
characterized by a mixture of simplicity and sensuality and a
preference for primary forms and compact volumes.
