The Iceberg instal­la­tion is LASVIT’s biggest work in all over Europe. It auda­cious­ly floats above the spa­cious entrance hall of the office build­ing Bořislavka Centrum, the home of KKCG head­quar­ters. It extends over almost 500 square meters of the ceiling.

Giant pan­els made of flat, sin­tered glass grad­u­al­ly light up to cre­ate the impres­sion of a liv­ing organism.The instal­la­tion con­sists of 110 glass com­po­nents and 1503 pressed wood­en boards. They dif­fer in length, shape and width, each of them is unique and cre­ates a wave effect.
