Studio Maximilian Beck joins SOLIDIFIED during Milan Design Week 2026!
Black and clear version of the VERA side table by Maximilian Beck
Captivated by the infinite variety of casting methods, where every detail in mould-making leaves unique traces, Maximilian Beck explores the interplay between light, texture, and raw matter. His sculptural practice interprets the transformative rhythms of nature alongside traditional artisanal techniques, translating them into contemporary form. His central material of choice is glass, transformed through refined mold-making and the intense heat of the kiln. Beck’s approach is guided by curiosity and exploration, with continuous material studies forming the foundation of his practice.
Max’s objects have been on display at eg. Museum of Decorative Arts Berlin, Collectible Brussels, Dutch Design Week and Milan Design Week (eg. Good Selection, Comune). At SOLIDIFIED he is planning to present new pieces of VERA. This collection combines traditional joinery techniques with cast glass. Defined by its open, precise construction, the piece conveys a sense of lightness while revealing an interior shaped by solid volume, refined finishing, and visual clarity. The object consists of three interlocking glass segments and is handcrafted by Maximilian Beck. The elements are neither glued nor fastened, but held together by their own weight and careful alignment. VERA invites thoughtful placement and holds a lasting presence.
