Since 2009, Flowers for Slovakia has produced 4 unique design collections, presented at over 30 international design shows, highlighting 53 design talents to watch – through bespoke design pieces.

You’re eligible to apply if you’re a student, fresh graduate or young practicing designer under 35. We invite product and graphics designers, architects, scenographers, fashion designers, or other creators w/o limitation of a specific field of design practice.

If you’re interested in storytelling by design, are eager to experiment, have an open mind, are Slovak, Czech or have Slovak or Czech roots and if you’d like to show your work in international design fairs beyond Europe – don’t hesitate!

In 2025, we are partnering with renowned design and artisan glass house LASVIT, to co-produce a unique project exploring neuroaesthetics and the intersection of sensory perception, glass design, and technology.

10 selected participants will be announced, along with the project’s concept, on February 28, 2025.

Once selected, participants must attend collective workshops designed to guide the creative process:

• March 2025 – Lasvit company visit, Headquarters & Glass workshop – 3 days, Nový Bor/Lindava, Czechia
• June 2025– Glass production workshop – 3 days, Nový Bor/Lindava, Czechia

Following these workshops, selected participants will work individually, supported by members of Lasvit and Flowers for Slovakia team, to finalize their innovative glass design objects for public presentation on international design fairs during 2025 and 2026.
