Her work is extravagant, flamboyant and a real experience.<\/p>\n<p>Her richly colored designs are alive and natural, fragile yet robust, simple yet ornate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Helle Mardahl Studio<\/strong> operates at the intersection of art and functionality to create a dreamy universe of richly colored glass designs of eccentric deviance. Influenced by nostalgic memories from childhood and iconic films such as <strong>Alice in Wonderland<\/strong> and <strong>Charlie &amp; The Chocolate Factory<\/strong>, the collection of glossy glass creates a conceptual candy universe of magic, dreams and indulgence.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2234 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The process of creating our candy objects is quite fascinating. Using the ancient technique of mouth-blowing, each object has its own unique shape and personality. Each design and every part of the collection is made by hand with precision and care \u2013 from glass to brass details to assembly of the lamp. Countless individual steps are required for every single product before being ready. Every piece is a one-off and signed by Helle Mardahl.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2235 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/splashmagazine.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/post_images_CANDY-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u201cWe have had a lot of years dominated by grey and beige.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Inside homes, shops and restaurants across Copenhagen, it\u2019s easy to see that Danes tend to favour more muted aesthetics.
