Practice Ideology
The studio was founded in 2002. The main representatives had worked as a successful creative team a few years earlier. The first joint venture was Všenory, the completion of a family house. Today, we can recognize their signature style in many award-winning projects – interiors, houses, offices, urban studies, art installations, and objects. From gas stations to school classrooms and recording studios, designer furniture, and product design. The studio is headed by four prominent personalities – Adam Jirkal, Jerry Koza, and the twin brothers Martin and Tomáš Kalhous. They are supported by literally all-capable and above all, reliable collaborators – architects, builders, and other related professionals. Close cooperation with the implementation company MY76 is key and, in many ways, decisive for SAD. The individual members of SAD are united by the desire to discover new opportunities, create original work, and cross the boundaries of disciplines and production processes. Also, curiosity, adventurous nature, the joy of experimentation, and an eye for detail, always support the whole, so they never end in themselves.
