HOOB / SPECIAL PROJECTS

HOOB Special Projects

Collaborations, limited-edition hookahs and bespoke releases where HOOB engineering becomes part of a distinct story.

In brief

What are HOOB special projects?

HOOB special projects bring together collaborations across the hookah industry, models created for venues and collector's editions released in limited numbers. The archive features RF Hookahs × HOOB, HOOB × Alkonost, HOOB × Hookah Place, HOOB × Bonche, HOOB × TimeLess, HOOB × Myata and Enzo Zirconium.

Each project begins with proven HOOB engineering, then develops its own material language, artwork, use case or collector's specification.

The HOOB approach

We create what history remembers

The ambition behind a HOOB special project is not a disposable design or a short-lived news moment. It is a recognisable work with the potential to become part of hookah-industry history.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about HOOB special projects

Which HOOB special projects are featured on this page?

RF Hookahs × HOOB, HOOB × Alkonost, HOOB × Hookah Place, HOOB × Bonche, HOOB × TimeLess, HOOB × Myata and the Enzo Zirconium collector's model.

How is a special project different from a production model?

A production model is made for regular release. A special project has a distinct brief, partner, visual treatment or limited edition size — sometimes only a handful of pieces.

Where can I learn more about RF Hookahs × HOOB?

The dedicated Enzo Ebony Swarovski project page covers both editions, materials, crystal count and seller contact details.

Can I propose a collaboration or custom project to HOOB?

Yes. Send the brief, intended edition size, preferred model and timeline through our contact page. The HOOB team will assess its production and technical feasibility.
