Somewhere between illusion and sensibility exists a special place of magic and mystique. A place where imagination and fantasy become reality, where magic is for everyone and where everything is not as it seems. Inspired by the iconic tales of Alice in Wonderland and Charlie & the Chocolate factory, Helle Mardahl’s latest collection ‘Sweet Illusion’ takes you on a journey to a parallel world of magic, myth & dreams. Influenced by a sense of quirkiness, abstract and unproportioned shapes, extravagant carrousels, and peculiar creatures, the collection of glass is full of surprises, childish fun, and sweet treats, of course. We welcome you to the Sweet Illusion. You’ll find the entrance behind the velvet curtain. Once you’ve passed through the entrance, the whimsical journey begins.

About
Helle Mardahl Studio
Helle Mardahl Studio operates at the intersection of art and functionality to create a dreamy universe of richly coloured glass designs of eccentric deviance. Influenced by nostalgic memories from childhood and iconic films such as Alice in Wonderland and Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, the collection of glossy glass creates a conceptual candy universe of magic, dreams and indulgence. A graduate of London’s Central Saint Martins, Helle Mardahl is an artist and designer whose work encompasses sculpture, installation, painting, fashion and interior design. Her work is marked by a sense of lavishness and extravagance combined with a sense of flamboyance. As a designer, Helle Mardahl is concerned with the beauty of contrasts. Her richly coloured designs are alive and natural, fragile yet robust, simple yet ornate.
