Inside, the space is representative of Chihuly's design aesthetic, showcasing pieces from his iconic bodies of work as well as his personal collections of art and unique objects. It is also home to one of the largest hot shops in the world, where Chihuly and his team of glassblowers create works in glass for art installations and exhibitions at museums and gardens.
