In the family firm producing windows for contemporary architecture, Jakub Janošík shapes the design and artistic direction. He is not an architect himself, but his work in the field and admiration for architects who have the freedom to create sparked a deep interest in architecture. Good architecture has become the goal of his journeys around the world. Gradually, he began forming his own perspective on architecture, which led to the need to give it tangible expression.
“I am fascinated by architecture that does not drown out the forces of landscape and nature, but lets them shine. Ideally, it plays with them, complementing them culturally. It is considerate, both visually and materially. And yet, it remains strong and contemporary. It consciously draws strength and atmosphere from nature, while harming it as little as possible. And when it is also expressive, then everything is as it should be. Contemporary landscapes are often more murdered than shaped by civilization.”
