In Common With Debuts Lido Series with Murano Glassmaker Laguna~B. Future

New York–based design studio In Common With has launched the Lido Series, a limited-edition collection of lighting and drinking vessels created in collaboration with Murano glass producer Laguna~B. Future. The series includes sconces, flush mounts, the modular Cosmos Chandelier, and two drinking vessels. Designed by co-founders Nick Ozemba and Felicia Hung, the collection employs two traditional Venetian glassmaking techniques: goti de fornasa, which uses leftover molten glass to create one-of-a-kind vessels, and murrine, which involves layering and slicing colored glass rods to reveal intricate cross-sections. Ozemba emphasizes that contemporary design can engage with historical making practices without sacrificing relevance. The studio, founded eight years ago, aims to balance craftsmanship with scalable production, treating design as a living, adaptive process.
