Austin’s Top 10 Most “Unique” Stained Glass Installations
Known for its eclectic landscape and vivacious music scene, Austin is truly a place rich in originality. And also, as many locals would argue, a place that celebrates the virtues of unique personalities and individualism. Just by walking down the sidewalk, you can see a wide range of local restaurants, art shops, music venues, and other businesses that are catered to the distinct style and taste of the many different people who live here.
It’s also where you can find some of the most creative and sometimes outlandish works of art. For individuals with funky style and eccentric taste, we’ve compiled this list of stained glass installations that keep Austin weird and will totally rock your universe.
1. Colorful Geometric Stained Glass
Is it a kaleidoscope view of a forest landscape with pine trees? Or is it just a somewhat organized explosion of cut up squares and circles created entirely from tubes of primary paint? We may never know. But whatever it is, we like it.
2. Texas Star Stained Glass
What better way to represent your state pride than with a Texas star stained glass installation right smack in the middle of your doorway. That way, none of your neighbors or visitors make any mistake as to where your loyalty lies. And it’s Chuck Norris approved!
3. Tie Dye Stained Glass
Well, it’s not technically tie dye, but what’s the difference? It looks like tie dye. Anyway, this colorful stained glass piece would make the perfect addition to your …hippie treehouse? Just kidding, we really do think that it’s quite beautiful and unique.
4. Grandparent Replica Stained Glass
Now you can preserve the happy smiles of Grandma and Grandpa forever and ever and ever…
5. Lassie Coat Hanger Stained Glass
Hurry, quick! Timmy fell down the well! Ah, the memories… she was such a good dog.
6. Picasso Goes Sailing Stained Glass
Also known as Starry Night, Color by Number Series. With this vibrant stained glass installation, you can sail into a swirling cosmic sunset right from the comfort of your own home. And the true benefit is, no one has to remember the sunscreen.
7. Elegant Hanging Stained Glass
This triple panel of stained glass lilies is a unique way to add an artistic touch to your home or business. We just love the idea of hanging these in an outdoor area that allows a full amount of light to come through them and reveal their true beauty.
8. Bald Eagle Stained Glass
Because …Americuhh!
9. Ocean Life Stained Glass
Imagine being able to make your fantasy of living underwater come to life. All with a simple stained glass installation for your Austin home. Add a couple of dolphins, some mermaids, and you’ll have a real ocean paradise. Just leave out the sharks. No sharks.
10. Peace Sign Stained Glass
We tilted our heads to the left. We tilted our heads to the right. We couldn’t figure out what was going on in the background of this window, but clearly this is an image of a peace sign, right? Austin loves peace signs.
What Makes Austin Weird?
Setting the quirky local artwork aside, it’s important to realize that there’s a bigger picture to all of this. Keeping Austin weird is all about supporting what makes the city so diverse, including its local businesses and creative entrepreneurs.
