Johan Pertl began his artistic journey by studying in the glass studio at the Academy of Arts, Architecture, and Design in Prague, where he graduated in 2022. He is currently continuing his doctoral studies, focusing on the application of direct solar energy in glass production. He explores the complex interaction between natural and social dynamics. He specializes in creating collectible design objects, primarily from glass and marble, and established his own studio in 2020. His work reflects a delicate balance between designer and craftsman.
We are architects, partners, and regular people. We had gathered experience on our own in various architectural studios. Since 2019, we have been evolving together. Each of our projects has to speak for itself—it must be inspired and have a zest that is very hard to describe, but you can feel it when it is there. We are young and it’s our second nature to experiment, play, and break down stereotypes. We ask and listen. A lot. At the beginning of each project, we ask about your habits, preferences, and life rhythm. The information provided is then transformed into shapes, spaces, colors, and materials. When you see the result of our work, we want you to say: “This is exactly what we wanted but we would never have thought of this solution ourselves".
