Modernista Design Shop House of the Black Madonna

This 1930s Art Deco coffee set with zigzag motif is a replica and not to be distinguished from the genuine coffee set if it were for sale. You can buy these ‘counterfeit’ set, coffee cups, milk jug, coffee pot and sugar bowl at Modernista. This branch specializes in replicas of Cubist ceramics represented in the collections of the Museum of Decorative Arts. The styles range from art deco and cubist to functionalist.

Modernista Vinohradsky Pavilon

Modernista flagship store is located in Vinohradsky Pavilon. This branch focuses on furniture, tubular steel furniture, stylish accessories and lamps. Here you will also find replicas of furniture by famous Czech designers like Pavel Janak, Vlastislav Hofman and Adolfa Loos. Unfortunately, chairs and cabinets are not very practical to take home as Prague souvenirs but all cubists fans should visit Modernista Design Shop! Vinohradsky Pavilion is a worth a closer look. Once a market hall, now converted into a designer paradise with up-market design shops: Stockist, AVITSmart, Bakitex, Fullstarrs and Galerie Pavilon. Café La Boheme is the perfect place for a coffee and to take in all the splendours of the design furniture and the market hall itself.
