Thirty handmade wooden spheres, thirty personalities and thirty unique stories. This led to the creation of an unusual project in 2022, which was intended as a thank you to those who helped NOVATOP grow into a respected brand in the international woodworking industry. The wooden spheres are gradually returning as original artifacts bearing deep symbolism of partnership that transcends ordinary business boundaries.
Each of the spheres underwent a unique creative process. Some have minimalist lines, others have vibrant colours, engravings or personal symbols. And there are also pieces that have become proof of playfulness and courage to conduct experiments. The originally smooth wooden sphe-res have become a gallery of approaches, personal messages, and views of wood as a material with emotion. The project, which was created as a token of appreciation to partners, has naturally transformed into a unique collection that offers a colourful cross-section of the creative world of personalities in the woodworking industry in Czechia and Europe.
„The return of the spheres has strong symbolism for us. It reminds us that architecture is not just a technical discipline, but the courage to create unusual things from wood. And that long-term partnership is not just a phrase, but the foundation of everything that pushes us towards a truly sustainable future. Relationships are what make our field unique. Like wood, our collaboration is alive and authentic. The most valuable thing I can pass on to the next generation is not machines or production halls, but business partners with who we often share more than just busi-ness – genuine, long-term friendships,“ says Jiří Oslizlo, CEO.
