BOREK SIPEK (Prague, Czech Republic, 1949-2016) for DRIADE. Cheesemaker. Glass. With its box. Measurements: 25 x 35 x 35 cm. Qusera designed by Borek Sipek, consisting of a bell in transparent glass decorated with handles in the form of glass rings in different colors. Sipek has become one of the key figures in postmodernist design craftsmanship, not only for the success his creations achieved, but also for the role he played in safeguarding the Czech glass industry. Borek Sipek was trained in interior design at the School of Arts and Crafts in Prague. He completed his studies in Architecture at the University of Applied Arts in Hamburg and Philosophy at the Technical University of Stuttgart, and later established his design workshop in Amsterdam in 1983. In the 1980s he began collaborating with Driade, for whom he designed furniture and objects characterized by their tremendous originality, a collaboration that was decisive for the success of his career. At Driade he became one of the brand's main collaborators alongside Philippe Starck, Oscar Tusquets and Antonia Astori. He was later one of the initiators of the construction of the Ajeto glass factory to support the traditions of Bohemian glassblowing, where the best craftsmen were dedicated to the creation of high-end pieces. He firmly entered Milan's design circles, where he was invited to collaborate with Alessi, Cleto Murani, Sawaya & Moroni, Wittmann and the Swiss brand Vitra. In the late 1980s, he traveled to Asia, where he became acquainted with the Japanese polychrome lacquer technique: he created an atypical Urushi Arai collection, where his usual techniques for glass were rendered in wood. Throughout his career he has received numerous awards, including the honorable mention in the German Architecture Prize (1983), the Dutch Kho Liang Le Dutch Kho Liang Design Award (1989), La Croix Chevalier dans l'ordre des Arts et Lettres by the French government (1991), the Prince Bernhard Fonds Award for Architecture and Applied Arts of the Netherlands (1993) and the Talent De L'Originalite" - Le Sommet du Luxe et de la Creation award, among others. Between 1990 and 2003 he held the title of court architect of Prague Castle appointed by Václav Havel, president of the former Czechoslovakia, later the Czech Republic.
