Pulp Studio has been designing and manufacturing technically advanced decorative glass for commercial markets since its inception in 1996. Pulp Studio passionately advocates for the creative uses of glass as a building element. The brand’s defining mission from the beginning was to fill the void in the market for innovative uses of glass in interior and façade projects. Pulp Studio’s technique com
bines technical prowess with design sensibility, creating products that reside at the intersection of fashion and function. Pulp Studio’s products include glass made with organic materials, textured glass, colored glass, printed graphics and more. Each piece of Pulp Studio glass is individually fabricated to size from a customer's specifications. The brand also provides safety glass with enhanced UV protection, sound attenuation and superior maintenance qualities. Their glass is produced in Los Angeles and shipped from their local facility with a commitment to provide various glass materials that comply with all of the necessary architectural safety requirements. Pulp Studio employs craftspeople, artists, scientists and inventors who view working with glass as an artistic endeavor – their medium being glass. The company’s capabilities include bending, hand-color coating, laser etching, glass carving, screenprint imaging, drilling and notching, and a patented system for uniformly illuminating panels using high-intensity LEDs. Every project is another opportunity for Pulp Studio to further enrich the idea of ‘custom’ by delivering superior design and functionality products. One of the company’s insulated glass products, Ombra™ achieves a solar heat gain coefficient superior to that of other insulated glass units, dramatically reducing climate control requirements and providing significant energy savings over the life of a building. Pulp Studio’s products have been used in numerous high-profile projects, including the Seattle Space Needle, the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, California, the Wilshire Grand in downtown Los Angeles and the Gores Group Headquarters in Beverly Hills, California. In 2019, Pulp Studio introduced an innovative ultra-thin product called DermaGlass™. Weighing considerably less than the industry standard, DermaGlass™ is exceptionally strong, flexible, durable and scratch-resistant. Because of its lighter weight, DermaGlass™ is well-suited for use in elevators, exterior facades and its ability to be laminated or backpainted makes it applicable for interior or decorative applications.
