Product detailed description
This pair of handmade whiskey glasses by Czech designer Lukáš Houdek draws inspiration from the bold forms of 20th-century modern architecture—most notably the work of Adolf Loos and Le Corbusier. Defined by a massive yet harmonious body, the glasses combine geometric precision with hand-engraved details that soften their sculptural clarity.
More than functional drinkware, these pieces embody a contemporary lifestyle that values craftsmanship, material authenticity, and design that speaks. Their substantial weight and tactile surface offer a sensory experience as refined as the drink they hold.
Blown and engraved by hand at HG ATELIER DESIGN in the Czech Republic, the glasses are sold as a set of two. Ideal for whiskey lovers, design enthusiasts, or as a statement gift with lasting presence.
About the designer: Lukáš Houdek graduated from the Academy of Arts, Architecture & Design in Prague. Together with Filip Houdek, he co-leads HG ATELIER DESIGN, where he explores the intersection of glass, light, and artistic storytelling. His work often features elements of pop culture, parody, and symbolism—seeking to infuse everyday objects with personality and soul.

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.
