I designed a pair of costume display cases for the New York City Ballet at Lincoln Center. The cases were designed to fit the ballet’s freight elevators and are outfitted with rechargeable batteries and recessed castors to allow them to be repositioned for events. The design references the patinated bronze and calacatta marble used throughout the ballet’s Philip Johnson building. I also employed some modern touches: For instance, the tempered glass is mounted to the outside of the bronze frame using hardware I designed. This allows all the exterior surfaces to be flush.
