White Tower
The White Tower stands as one of the most significant Renaissance landmarks in the Czech Republic. Its Gothic chapel and Baroque reconstruction reflect centuries of architectural evolution. Our vision was to let crystal tell the story of stone. The result is a 1:20 scale glass replica that transforms a historic monument into a radiant sculpture.
Over 500 pieces of extra-clear crystal were precisely cut, glued, and hand-polished to achieve perfect optical clarity. Each surface was refined to alternate between matte and gloss finishes, enhancing contrast and depth when illuminated.
More than 1 500 hours of handwork went into the model, complemented by blown glass elements that add softness to the tower’s geometry.
Standing 3,8 metres tall and weighing over 1 000 kg, the 1:20 scale tower reimagines the original’s architecture through transparency and reflection. Internal and external lighting create a dynamic interplay that brings the piece to life, revealing its geometry and spirit through shifting RGB hues.
A monument preserved through glass and light.
