Nikolas Weinstein Studios creates architecturally integrated glass sculptures that anchor and define singular projects and developments. Inspired by the invisible forces that shape the natural world, these bespoke installations are crafted in collaboration with some of the most renowned architects and designers, including Frank Gehry, Kengo Kuma, Foster + Partners, and other prominent designers. The installations range in scale from the world's largest glass sculpture on record, towering eight stories, to residential artworks for private clients.

Visitors are invited to this sunlit studio space in Long Island City to preview current works in progress, glimpse design + fabrication methodology, and enjoy fantastic views of the Queensboro Bridge.
