The PULSE is a long-term project that aims to map, connect, and mutually inspire the creative region of Central Europe (Austria, Czechia, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia) across three categories: architecture/urbanism, interior design, and design. The main goal is to create a platform for discussion, education, and best practice sharing among architects, designers, developers, representatives of related businesses, industry experts, academics, as well as political and municipal figures.
Returning for its third edition after two highly successful years, PULSE Festival 2025 presented a bold new theme: RESTART. Taking place once again in Ostrava, Czech Republic, this year’s edition examined the urgent need to rethink architecture and design amid social, ecological, and economic transformation.
The PULSE platform brought hundreds of professionals from the fields of architecture and design to Ostrava. Inspiring talks, networking, and informal gatherings formed the core of the two-day event, where BROKIS was represented by Jan Rabell. One of the main topics of his presentation was the new Blooms concept made from recycled BROKISGLASS material. The event also included exhibitions, installations, and interactive experiences, showcasing among others BROKIS and BROKISGLASS production.
