Glass House Moleskine® Sketchbook
The mission of the Philip Johnson Glass House is to focus on being a center point for modern preservation and also to inspire new ideas and talent in architecture, design, and art. With that in mind, the Philip Johnson Glass House will be developing a custom edition of the Glass House Moleskine® sketchbook for sale in our store and a sketch gallery on the website to launch May 17, 2008.
This sketchbook is inspired by the site’s unique power of place, its role as a source of inspiration for architects, designers and artists, and the desire for visitors to pause, look closely, and document their observations as part of their site experience. In this spirit, the Glass House has launched a partnership with Moleskine®, the signature tool for creative minds, to produce a custom sketchbook for the Glass House
The Glass House sketchbook features 29 sketches by various architects, designers, and artists inspired by the site, relevant quotes by Philip Johnson, and many blank pages for notes or sketching. The Glass House Moleskine® will be a featured product of the 2008 in the Glass House Shop with all proceeds from this sketchbook will support the Glass House.
