At Kolektiv Ateliers, timeless artistry meets contemporary vision

We build on the heritage of traditional glassmaking while embracing cutting-edge technology and design. This fusion defines our work: rooted in craft, alive with innovation.


Origin Story

The Beginning

Kolektiv Ateliers was born in 2012 and officially founded in 2013. It united artists and craftsmen to carry forward the spirit of creative movements such as Bauhaus and Artěl in a contemporary form.

Rooted in Northern Bohemia’s Crystal Valley, we bring together traditional ateliers and specialised techniques under one shared vision. Beyond creation, we teach, collaborate and support the next generation of glassmakers.

Dubai

In 2017, we opened our branch in Dubai Design District, expanding into the Middle East and building a reputation for bespoke large-scale installations across private, hospitality and public spaces.

London

In 2025, we co-founded Atelier Bohemia in Clerkenwell, London — a collective space showcasing the finest Czech design and craftsmanship, creating new bridges between Europe and the Middle East.


From Bohemia to the world, craftsmanship remains our constant.

Behind every installation stands a collective of artisans, designers and the people guiding our work. Together, they ensure that each piece is as precise in execution as it is bold in imagination.

Our work draws on a wide spectrum of glassmaking techniques. These skills refine every detail and expand what glass can achieve. Our craftsmanship is never static. It evolves with each project.
