Niniejszy manifest stanowi deklarację filozofii projektowej, będącej zobowiązaniem do tworzenia trwałego dziedzictwa w epoce, którą charakteryzuje tymczasowość. Punktem wyjścia jest zbieżność tradycyjnego rzemiosła z technologiami przyszłości.
This concept is called Artisan Futurism .
It's an idea that sees the past not as a relic, but as a foundation for innovation. This concept combines a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship with the advanced use of technology, enabling us to transcend the boundaries of form and function. It represents a future in which design evolves from ephemeral fashion to enduring heritage.
1. Creating heritage as opposed to fashion.
The contemporary definition of luxury, based on the concept of temporariness and seasonal replacement, is rejected. True luxury is defined through the prism of durability. Designed and created objects are characterized by a life cycle measured in generations. Materials such as Cor-Ten steel or stone do not age but mature, and their natural patina constitutes a material record of the passage of time, giving them nobility and unique historical value. It is assumed that the most sustainable object is one that will never need replacement.
2. Synergy of manual labor and digital technology.
Technology is not seen as the opposite of craftsmanship, but as its natural extension—a tool that, in the hands of a master, allows for previously unattainable precision and scale. Digital modeling enables the visualization of advanced concepts, while modern machining techniques allow for their implementation with engineering precision. However, the final shape, texture, and unique character of an object are the result of human intervention. True innovation is born at the convergence of the precision of digital code and the intuition of the craftsman.
3. Sustainable development as a fundamental principle.
An approach to ecology is an integral element of the design process, not merely a marketing tool. This process begins with the selection of fully recyclable materials. It continues with design focused on disassembly and waste minimization. The culmination is the aforementioned sustainability, which in itself represents the ultimate form of a circular economy. Beauty and responsibility are not a matter of choice, but rather form an inextricable whole.
4. Redefining space.
Projects such as gazebos, gates, sculptures, and stained glass windows are not merely objects placed within a given space. They constitute key elements defining its character. A monumental gate functions as a symbolic portal to the private sphere. A sculpture situated in a garden establishes a dialogue with the architecture and surrounding nature. Through the play of light, stained glass modifies the interior atmosphere depending on the time of day. The overarching goal is to create objects that not only occupy space but, above all, actively shape it, imbuing it with meaning, depth, and emotional charge.
These principles form the foundation of our vision. It envisions a future where value is defined by intergenerational sustainability, not by ephemeral attributes. In this vision, technology serves as a tool supporting craftsmanship, while beauty becomes synonymous with responsibility. This is the future we are designing and realizing at Ideovo.
