DAVID WILSON



Renowned for his successful collaborations with architects on large-scale works for both public and private buildings, David Wilson pursues the goal of designing glass that adds to and enriches architecture. By emphasizing the importance of visual harmony in the built environment, he creates designs that are the result of reducing forms to their simplest solution. David Wilson’s design process firmly relies on clear and thoughtful communication with both the architect and those who will use the building. This reciprocal exchange is a delicate balance that requires a mutual respect for the integrity of all involved.

Born in 1941 and raised in England, David Wilson came to the United States in 1963 after completing five years of art school. David developed his skills in both design and fabrication as head of the Rambusch stained glass studio in New York City. Eleven years later he established himself in upstate New York as an independent designer, fabricator and installer of his leaded glass and architectural artwork. In 2002, with his focus shifting squarely on design and its’ inherent problem solving, he started WRW Studio in Charlotteville, NY with Walter Riesen and Trevor Wilson to execute a broader range of projects.
