Product detailed description
This set of handmade whiskey glasses by Lukáš Houdek draws inspiration from 20th-century modernist architecture and the philosophies of Adolf Loos and Le Corbusier. Each glass features a bold geometric form, softened by subtle hand-engraved details that evoke movement and intentional imperfection—bringing human touch into structured form.
The weighty base and precise proportions speak to a contemporary lifestyle rooted in clarity, craft, and visual strength. Designed and blown in the Czech Republic, these glasses balance functionality and sculpture—perfect for lovers of thoughtful design and good spirits alike.
Sold as a set of two, they make an excellent gift for design enthusiasts, architects, or anyone who finds joy in elevating everyday rituals.
About the designer: Lukáš Houdek graduated from the Academy of Arts, Architecture & Design in Prague and works alongside Filip Houdek at HG ATELIER DESIGN. His practice merges design and art, often using glass as a storytelling material filled with humor, symbolism, and light. His aim is to give everyday objects a deeper emotional and sculptural value.

Lukáš Houdek (*1988) is a Czech glass artist whose work is defined by humour, playfulness and a surprising lightness rarely associated with such a serious material as glass. A graduate of the UMPRUM Glass Studio under Rony Plesl, his sculptures and objects are instantly recognisable for their distinctive character and bold creative approach.
Houdek moves freely between artistic expression and design, exploring themes of pop culture, parody and material experimentation. He embraces both traditional and innovative techniques, often pushing the technical and visual boundaries of contemporary glassmaking.
After his studies, Houdek worked at Moser before contributing to the development of HG Atelier, the glass studio founded by his brother Filip. Together, they create bespoke lighting objects for private interiors and also run the Houdek.Art project, which connects glass design with the world of super sports cars. Houdek collaborates closely with designer Yulin Huang, currently associated with Lasvit.
His work has been exhibited widely — in Hong Kong, Prague, Paris, Milan, New York, Nový Bor, Taipei and many other cities. He has participated in symposia, group exhibitions and notable design festivals, including Designblok, Maison & Objet and the International Glass Symposium in Nový Bor.
Houdek represents a new generation of glassmakers who bring humour, experimentation and contemporary visual culture into the medium, expanding its expressive potential while maintaining strong craftsmanship.
