This creates furniture that is strong, repeatedly dismountable and also available for e-commerce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"For us, the Idea of \u200b\u200bthe Year is not just a competition, but a confirmation that our idea makes sense outside the design community. CULTO does not want to remain a Czech rarity - we are building a brand that can stand on the European market and show that smart design from the Czech Republic has global potential,\" says <strong>Jana Hejnicov\u00e1<\/strong>, co-founder of CULTO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"We respect concrete precisely because it doesn't play tricks on anyone. It is strong, durable and timeless. Our goal is to show that it can also function in a refined way indoors - light, modular and playful,\"  adds <strong>Michal Brach<\/strong>, co-founder and designer of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The first public premiere of CULTO will take place at Designblok 2025, where the brand will present a limited edition and an installation presentation designed by designer Petr H\u00e1k.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CULTO is betting on direct online sales and a digital configurator that will allow customers to assemble their own furniture - from dimensions to colors. Expansion is planned from 2027, when the brand will open a showroom in Prague and prepare to enter European markets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p><strong>Media contacts<br><\/strong>Jana Hejnicov\u00e1 \u2014 Brand &amp; Business Development<br>\u2709\ufe0e <a href=\"mailto:jana@studioculto.cz\" title=\"\">jana@studioculto.cz<\/a> | <span class=\"wp-rich-text-font-awesome-icon wp-font-awesome-icon\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"globe\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-globe\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 512 512\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M352 256c0 22.2-1.2 43.6-3.3 64H163.3c-2.2-20.4-3.3-41.8-3.3-64s1.2-43.6 3.3-64H348.7c2.2 20.4 3.3 41.8 3.3 64zm28.8-64H503.9c5.3 20.5 8.1 41.9 8.1 64s-2.8 43.5-8.1 64H380.8c2.1-20.6 3.2-42 3.2-64s-1.1-43.4-3.2-64zm112.6-32H376.7c-10-63.9-29.8-117.4-55.3-151.6c78.3 20.7 142 77.5 171.9 151.6zm-149.1 0H167.7c6.1-36.4 15.5-68.6 27-94.7c10.5-23.6 22.2-40.7 33.5-51.5C239.4 3.2 248.7 0 256 0s16.6 3.2 27.8 13.8c11.3 10.8 23 27.9 33.5 51.5c11.6 26 20.9 58.2 27 94.7zm-209 0H18.6C48.6 85.9 112.2 29.1 190.6 8.4C165.1 42.6 145.3 96.1 135.3 160zM8.1 192H131.2c-2.1 20.6-3.2 42-3.2 64s1.1 43.4 3.2 64H8.1C2.8 299.5 0 278.1 0 256s2.8-43.5 8.1-64zM194.7 446.6c-11.6-26-20.9-58.2-27-94.6H344.3c-6.1 36.4-15.5 68.6-27 94.6c-10.5 23.6-22.2 40.7-33.5 51.5C272.6 508.8 263.3 512 256 512s-16.6-3.2-27.8-13.8c-11.3-10.8-23-27.9-33.5-51.5zM135.3 352c10 63.9 29.8 117.4 55.3 151.6C112.2 482.9 48.6 426.1 18.6 352H135.3zm358.1 0c-30 74.1-93.6 130.9-171.9 151.6c25.5-34.2 45.2-87.7 55.3-151.6H493.4z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/studioculto.cz\/en\/\" title=\"\"> studioculto.cz<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"wp-rich-text-font-awesome-icon wp-font-awesome-icon\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"right-to-bracket\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-right-to-bracket\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 512 512\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M217.9 105.9L340.7 228.7c7.2 7.2 11.3 17.1 11.3 27.3s-4.1 20.1-11.3 27.3L217.9 406.1c-6.4 6.4-15 9.9-24 9.9c-18.7 0-33.9-15.2-33.9-33.9l0-62.1L32 320c-17.7 0-32-14.3-32-32l0-64c0-17.7 14.3-32 32-32l128 0 0-62.1c0-18.7 15.2-33.9 33.9-33.9c9 0 17.6 3.6 24 9.9zM352 416l64 0c17.7 0 32-14.3 32-32l0-256c0-17.7-14.3-32-32-32l-64 0c-17.7 0-32-14.3-32-32s14.3-32 32-32l64 0c53 0 96 43 96 96l0 256c0 53-43 96-96 96l-64 0c-17.7 0-32-14.3-32-32s14.3-32 32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>  <a href=\"https:\/\/studioculto.cz\/en\/pro-media\/\" title=\"For media\">Back to the media section<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nov\u00e1 \u010desk\u00e1 zna\u010dka CULTO se probojovala do semifin\u00e1le presti\u017en\u00ed startupov\u00e9 sout\u011b\u017ee N\u00e1pad roku 2025.
