The essence of the highly popular Designblok festival in Prague and the best of contemporary Czech design of glass land in Milan in a metal capsule on a six wheeled spacecraft, bringing on stage ‘The Intergalactic Beauty of Czech Design’.

The exhibition Designblok Cosmos presents to Italian visitors ten original works in glass by ten contemporary Czech designers of different generations, ten personal approaches to glass, the traditional Czech craft material. An immersive audiovisual show will be staged. The custom-built truck offers an exhibition space of 65 square metres. The interior has been covered with mirrors, while the exterior is wrapped in a reflective silver cloth. This is the first time that the Prague International Design Festival Designblok is taking its products abroad, celebrating its 25th anniversary. “Starting from the Royal Gardens of Prague Castle, the exhibition will travel the world and carry the flag of Czech glass abroad,” explains Jan Plecháč, the architect of the exhibition (while the curatorship is by Jana Zielinski and the creative direction is by Jiří Macek).
