House Oskar
House Oskar is a house in the South Bohemian village of Kamenná Lhota, built in a generous garden that once belonged to the neighbouring château. It was designed by architect Jan Žaloudek.
Jan and his wife, art historian and writer Jolanta Trojak, had long dreamed of a home where they could connect with the landscape, or retreat inward. Life here follows natural cycles and the movement of daylight.

Gear draws its inspiration from the 1950s architectural movement of Brutalism, characterized by its geometric forms and raw concrete surfaces. The series reimagines brutalist architecture into furniture but aims to soften its otherwise perceived harsh expression.
Bufala Chair

With rich wood grain, the Bufala Chair has a distinctive appearance to match its high quality, solid wood construction. The back is made with a special production technique pressing multiple layers of oak veneer in a compression mold, forming the characteristic buffalo horn shape that provides back and arm support.

Oku Dining Table
Oku Dining Table Rect.
Oku [Jpn.: Ōku] refers to the essence of the design - oak. Through experiments with the balance between lightness and heaviness - paper-thin when seen from one angle and solid from others, the material has been emphasised in a simple design.
