The recycled Lemonade LOVE jars by Jakub Berdych Karpelis impress with their minimalist design and playful LO + VE text in an unobtrusive gold finish. Does it have to be two for love? The LO+VE glasses wouldn't be one without the other. They need each other and that makes everything make sense. The unique idea of designer Jakub Berdych Karpelis led to the creation of upcycled glasses, which play a primary role in the Qubus portfolio and give unused bottles a second life. Lemonade LO+VE are sold in a set of 2, where one glass complements the other. They match the Unnamed Vase Golden Love and Unnamed Bucket Vase Golden Love perfectly in the set.
ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Jakub Berdych Karpelis is the co-founder of the Qubus studio. Since its inception in 2002, he has been working mainly with conceptual art in traditional Czech materials such as glass and porcelain. He is credited with the brand's expansion beyond the Czech Republic and the creation of a number of works, complete collections and products now significant for the Qubus brand. Among the most famous projects is the reconstruction of the interior of the Church of St. Bartholomew in Chodovice. His works can be seen not only in Czech, but also in world famous galleries and collections such as Moss Gallery New York or Mint Gallery London and others. In addition to conceptual and product design, he also works in the field of interior design, architecture and free art. Since 2008 he has been the art director of the gallery store Dox by Qubus at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art in Prague.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Qubus is the first post-revolution independent design brand and studio in the Czech Republic, featuring the country's first design shop with its own production.
Since its inception in 2002, it has been located at Rámová 3, Prague 1. From luxury collectible objects to everyday design products, Qubus is renowned for its imaginative style that ironically and humorously pushes the boundaries of personal taste.
The brand was founded in 2002 by sculptor and designer Jakub Berdych Karpelis (1971), who invited Maxim Velčovský (1976), then a fresh graduate of UMPRUM, to collaborate.
That same year, the duo opened the Qubus showroom. They managed the brand together until 2010, when Maxim departed for Lasvit, where he remains today. Jakub Berdych Karpelis continues as the owner, art director, and chief designer of his own brand.
In 2023, Jakub was joined by curator, and creative producer Marcela Straková (1977). Together, they now lead the studio as an curator-designer duo, heading toward the 25th anniversary of Qubus in May 2026.
In addition to conceptual and product design, Qubus Studio also realizes projects in interior design and exhibition architecture. Qubus is both a recipient and a creator of several prestigious awards in the fields of culture, art, and design. Under the Qubus brand, numerous now-iconic installations, collections, and artworks have been created.
The studio’s products are characterized by the use of traditional materials, such as glass and porcelain, crafted in local workshops in collaboration with regional masters of their trade.
Since its early days, Qubus has invited other artists and designers to collaborate and expand its portfolio with original, limited-edition collections. The Qubus Design Studio thus serves as a creative platform not only for Jakub Berdych Karpelis but for other artists and designers as well.
All Qubus products are HANDMADE IN BOHEMIA – handcrafted in the Czech Republic.
