<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong><br />

<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>Space</strong><br />

champagne among light<strong>in</strong>g fi xtures<br />

Do you fancy bubbles? They tickle on your tongue, sparkle down<br />

your throat and make you smile. The bubbles are full of optimism<br />

and emotions and Champagne w<strong>in</strong>e have had and will always reta<strong>in</strong><br />

the prestige of luxury item, likewise the <strong>Lasvit</strong> collection <strong>Bubbles</strong><br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong>. While the genesis of Champagne sparkl<strong>in</strong>g w<strong>in</strong>e dwells<br />

under the veil of secret and its orig<strong>in</strong> should most likely be blamed<br />

on its makers’ fault and the second fermentation, the birth of the<br />

<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong>, the fi zzy spatial object is crystal clear, wilful and<br />

targeted. While the safe storage of the fi zzy w<strong>in</strong>e is assigned to<br />

Frenchmen age-old rivals, the Englishmen, who <strong>in</strong> the 17th century<br />

have found the technology of manufactur<strong>in</strong>g very thick glass that<br />

does not break so easily, the perfect shape and aesthetics of the<br />

<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong> should be assigned to thousand-year-old tradition<br />

of the Czech glassmak<strong>in</strong>g, that has ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>ed its rare position <strong>in</strong><br />

the world of glassmak<strong>in</strong>g s<strong>in</strong>ce the Gothic.<br />

F<strong>in</strong>e matured <strong>Bubbles</strong> popped up from the art of the Czech<br />

glassmak<strong>in</strong>g designers and glass-work masters, always fresh with<br />

a versatile refl exive tone, smart, space friendly and always of an<br />

outstand<strong>in</strong>g aesthetic class. The object can fulfi l the function of<br />

light<strong>in</strong>g fi xture as well as it has a power to fi ll up the room with<br />

specifi c atmosphere. Its remarkable conception makes it impossible<br />

for the viewer to perceive it only <strong>in</strong> a practical sense. Multiplicity,<br />

spatial make-up, an abstract form of it and a light <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />

ensure this emotional light<strong>in</strong>g whirl with a stir of emotion. The<br />

sphere, the bubble, <strong>in</strong> other word, which stands for the determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

shape of the object, is also the natural constituent of the glass<br />

material and obvious part of the matter. Its surface refl ects the<br />

world around and transforms the image of it due to its ability to<br />

cast optical spells prompt<strong>in</strong>g the viewer’s imag<strong>in</strong>ation <strong>in</strong>to the<br />

plays of light, shape and motion.<br />

Popularity of Champagne w<strong>in</strong>e steadily grew, among other reasons,<br />

for the bubbles <strong>in</strong> w<strong>in</strong>e somehow speed up the fl ow of alcohol<br />

<strong>in</strong>to the blood. The <strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong> by <strong>Lasvit</strong> are the Champagne<br />

among all spatial light<strong>in</strong>gs, the fi zz that really gets you drunk with<br />

stirr<strong>in</strong>g emotion fl ow<strong>in</strong>g freely <strong>in</strong>to your m<strong>in</strong>d.
