Floating Glass Museum: art and design to combat climate change

The Museum of Floating Glass is an innovative project where the boundaries between art and nature are blurred and water becomes a canvas for contemporary expression. The project is presented by the architectural firm Luca Curci Architects, in collaboration with Giulia Tassi Design and an international team of architects and designers with the support of artificial intelligence.

Inspired by Venice’s rich cultural heritage and the intricate art of glassmaking, the Floating Glass Museum combines tradition and innovation, with cutting-edge design and a dedication to sustainability. Through meticulous research of materials and attention to the surroundings, the museum will be a sanctuary where the history of glass meets contemporary experimentation.

The Floating Glass Museum represents a global initiative, a symbol of environmental awareness, a unique space where art, nature and tradition converge: a balanced fusion of contemporary art and sustainable design that will invite contemplation, reflection and discovery.

The project will be presented in several cities affected by climate change, such as Dubai, New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and Busan.
