20 Years of Czechdesign!

2023

Czechdesign celebrates 20 years

It is twenty years since Czechdesign first ventured into the Czech realm of design. From a small project of passionate students was developed a prominent organisation that helps and supports Czech design to thrive. 

Czechdesign is the most read online portal about design in the Czech Republic. It organises professional competitions for designers and architects and helps designers sell their products through e-shops and in-stores in Prague. 

 

 

Tititi figurines were gifted to Jana Vinšová (Head of Czechdesign) and Radim Tuček (CEO) by the employees of the Czech Design Shop.

How are Tititi figurines made?

Tititi is a brand founded in 2019 by Tereza Talichová, which has since managed to establish itself in the field of contemporary Czech design for children. It focuses on the author’s painted wooden figurines, personifying in an individual form a number of different types of people, artists or dramatic characters from theatrical or literary works, viewed through a playful lens and with attention to detail.

Each of the figures is first created by turning the body of the figurine from wood (spruce, oak, linden). Except for exceptions, it is a symmetrical, vertical shape, individualized according to the designed profile (silhouette) and then finished with an original painting
