In the implementation of the layered bowl the piece represents psychopompos in the shape of a duck with rippling circles of water on the inside. The dish is made of two parts, cast glass and leather. Base form for casting is 3D printed.
Psychopompos / In various systems of religious belief, a being, such as a god, animal or a person acting as a shaman, who guides the spirits of the dead to the afterlife or the otherworld.
Maxim Velcovsky‘s porcelain rubber boots were the inspiration for Cow Boys boxers, which represent the toughness and grit of a real wrangler; the rawness of the leather is complemented by the hand-stitching, metal fasteners, and some good-ol’fire-branding.
The idea was to create a collection of elegant men’s denture cases, designed for men who have lost their teeth for whichever reason and they want their dignity back. As a design I chose basic geometric shapes (circles, squares, hexagons), which can be stacked. The cases are made by blowing glass into molds in black, milky and transparent and in combination with fur, leather, and complemented with metal components.
Without water, life can not exist. This idea gave rise to the water drinking set Basic. The color, the thickness of the wall of glass, and the blowing of the glass into the same mold creates completely different results. A crystal variant of its transparency refers to the clear structure of water; the color spectrum from opaque black to alabaster symbolizes a fireplace. O-rings are added to the glasses to function as stoppers, so as to make a neat snug fit.
A collection of ephemeral objects designed for women who like the unusual connection of materials, playfulness and strangeness. Objects are designed for special, exceptional occasions.
The task was to look for materials which are similar to certain qualities of the glass, such as ropes, ribbons, porcelain paper, binding electrician’s tape, the reticle on the onions, stainless steel, silver.
In 2016, as a source of inspiration,
I discovered a mere engine bolt from the supercar Pagani Huyra. At first glance, it might seem that this is a banal functional component, and by no means an exceptional part. However, every bolt contains the company logo and is very precisely crafted and, in my opinion, beautifully designed. Equally strong is the symbolism of these structural elements that connect the very heart of the car: the engine. And all this inspired me to design crystal objects blown into the mold and completed with milled aluminum inspired by luxury design as well as the individual parts of the engine. And, they fit together flawlessly.
A collection of bowls with lids that allows you to capture the essence of an excellent meal. The use of this set is directly linked to molecular cuisine, which brings great potential for the future of modern/molecular gastronomy in terms of a multi-sensational experience with a touch of complex technology, yet simple elegant design.

A collection of dreamy rings with stones which can be inter-changed depending on the occasion. Thanks to the magnets the wearer can choose among the different stones and add or take away them as determined by mood or occasion.
The topic I chose for my bachelor thesis, is “structures”, which is reflected in the glass. I was inspired by an extinct fire: a primordial “table”. It is designed to symbolize the meeting place of our ancestors, but also our friends, acquaintances, family or community environment in contemporary society. I work with space at home, where the most traditional meeting place is the table where one can sit with friends over good food, drink and conversation.
That‘s why I created a collection of two trays, referring to the hearth and supplemented with Containers For Nothing shaped in teardrops symbolizing seeds from the pip fruit representing a new birth. On the trays we can place fruit, a glass of wine and really anything else. The entire collection is useable, functional and intimate.
For the emergence of the carafe AKA / VEOLIA the inspiration comes from a mere cap decanter/stem, which is based on the simple facade of the Roman aqueduct (from the Latin aqua ductus, literally tap water). The morphology of the decanter is inspired by the Greek amphora (amphora or “carrier”), a medieval vessel on the water.
The men’s thin crystal decanter is designed so that it fits naturally into the hand. This makes it easily graspable. It is contemporarily made in the functional morphology design referring to the amphora and the aqueduct. The cork stopper together with the stainless steel provides an elegant tight seal to avoid any spillage.
The lighted rim decanters are designed for restaurants to better handle the glassware in a busy heavy-use environment, whereas the grinded and polished decanters are designed for home, where they will be a good fit at any meal or special occasion.
Formed collection of applied objects call Light fist weapons inspired by the morphology engine Pagani Huyra.
Design is about desire. If we purchase an object of desire, it makes us happy. And that’s why I designed this light object. I could and it was my desire. Chandelier 0 is a four-spoked light object. The whole concept after all comes from a reinterpretation of a traditional crystal chandelier, which is familiar to Czech and Italian traditions. I came up with a new perspective and placement in a new framework for something so traditional. That’s why I chose to pull this together in the esthetic of sports cars. So I mixed something old with something new and overall here is my final master piece.
My inspiration comes from the Pagani Hueyra engine. The pipe-work, it’s bending, shaping, and flow inspired me to create the form.
I took measurements of all dimensions of the car and applied them to the form of the chandelier.
The interior was another influence, which is seen in the leather jacket.
The gas hoses represent the pendant of traditional chandeliers.
The glass lights bring the piece to life, and without the lights it would be invisible, therefore, the glass gives life.

A collection of unusual experimental jewel called Gems. Was made out of gilded brass, silver and parts of ReDigiMade were printed on 3D printer. Inspired and formed by multiplying object into another.
A coffee kettle for coffee lovers who have had enough of fumbling with the kettle and the cups separately. The Cosy Coffee Kettle for 2 allows coffee lovers to handle both tasks at once.
The film which I have chosen as my inspiration is Dead Man: a psychedelic western, written and directed by Jim Jarmusch. The image that I have chosen is the end of the film when Nobody and William Blake, who is on the verge of death, arrives at the sacred Indian site and the sacred rite may finally allow his soul to drift away.
The collection of luxury urns, accompanied by feather attributes - protector (guide), hair (the force of life), and a mirror (a reflection of oneself/selfie) who create the overall atmosphere of the film. What I wanted to accomplish was to link a view of two worlds: indigenous peoples of North America and the people of the Old Continent (Europe), and which rituals were/are used in burials.
In the story of a river, there is a way and an end.
Lithographic prints inspired by horse races.
The meaning of The Trifecta is the placing of horses at the first, second and third place.
The Perfect Treesome. Drawings on the
lithographic stone were created by
horsehair and lasted approximately
320 hours.
The originals of only three pieces from each print. The lithograph is printed in white paint
on lucide paper.

The light objects of white neon represent abstracted shapes of the symbol 0 and infinity. These two symbols let me create endless shapes and mutable 3D objects. + The idea was to add objects together to increase the volume to make it more important and reflect contemplations of light in interiors and space. The bent neon tubes are a reaction to intuitively shaped physical models. Inset to one another, they create the final, yet mutable 3D object.

The installation of solitary light object created for PragueDesignWeek in MÁNES /2022 is based on the author’s longterm project NEONS. The oversized scale of the bent glass tubes subtly evokes the use of neon in public space, while at the same time transferring it into the interior in an abstracted and simple morphology. Each of the objects is unique in its shape, while the collection is united by tradition combined with experimentation, playfulness, mutability and lightness.

Get On The Ice!
Ice Hockey and Skating in Art
The conceptual light object, known as
light PU_K, represents a unique fusion of art and sport. Its primary purpose is to capture and visually convey the raw power and dynamic essence of hockey games by preserving the imprints of scars left on plexiglass from the impact of the puck.
Each hockey match imparts its distinct mark on the Plexiglas, documenting the scars resulting from the puck’s swift movements and forceful impacts during play. These scars are then meticulously captured and projected onto the adjacent wall, an integral part of the light object.
This projection of scar prints onto the wall transforms the light PU_K into a three-dimensional visual masterpiece. The resulting imagery, marked by earthquake-like lines, broken curves, and intricate pat- terns, forms a mesmerizing and abstract spectacle that encapsulates the energy and intensity of hockey matches.
By projecting these scar prints onto the wall, we immortalize the moments of these matches long after the games have concluded. light PU_K also becomes
a luminous symbol, a testament to the rich history of the club or team it represents.
However, light PU_K is not just an aesthetic marvel; it is also a tangible representation of the players’ craftsmanship and their unwavering passion for the game. It serves as a celebration of hockey as an art form, highlighting the fluidity and grace of movement on ice.
In addition, a collection of representative pucks from various games can be prominently displayed in galleries, hockey museums, or specially designed spaces. This provides fans and visitors with the opportunity to admire these frozen moments in time, allowing them to relive the emotional highs and lows of their favorite games.
In essence, light PU_K is a luminous masterpiece that seamlessly blends art, sport, and nostalgia. It stands as a poignant reminder of the enduring power and significance of hockey as a sport and, through it, the personal narratives of both players and fans.
