Elin's designs are characterised by clean lines, subtle colour palettes, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of the material. They often reveal a sense of movement, capturing the inherent energy and fluidity working with molten glass. Her designs are often very tactile, and she encourages her audience to touch her glass.
Blowing glass is a constant battle against gravity, using heat whilst forming shapes at speed. Many ideas are born through observing the behaviour of the glass whilst making other pieces or commissions.
Elin's snow textures reflect the light through colours. Water reflections in the Scottish landscape also play a role, and a research trip to in India has brought splashes of bright pinks and gold into her recent work.
