Realization of high standard residential housing in a quiet and peaceful part of Prague 6 - Bubenč, within sight of the royal Stromovka preserve.
The building is part of the complex, where in the northern part there is an original building. The dramatically elevated plot was historically used for therapeutic purposes and was built in several stages. The oldest part of it are two Neo-Renaissance villas at the corner of Chittussiho / Maďarská streets in the northern corner. In the next stage, again in the historicist style, the main building was built roughly on the west. In modern times, the complex was then very insensitively complemented by a massive panel block to the north along Street Maďarská.
The land itself is full of green vegetation, which is the biggest benefit of the area. We have sited the house so that the original valuable trees are preserved. As a result, the terraces of the apartments have direct contact with the greenery and the feeling of terraces in the treetops is achieved.
The realised building is based on the context of the site, not only in its use as a generous villa house, but also in its massing and scale.
The logical typology of the villa house, individual living with a strong emphasis on privacy, can be richly fulfilled by the future ensemble. The house offers variations on medium to large flats with spacious terraces, intimate front gardens and green roofs, making the most of the great asset of the site, the beautiful green of the forest park.
We were inspired by the Bubeneč villas not only by their articulated floor plans, bay windows and balconies, but also by expressive devices such as the scalloped inter-window grooves. The grooving used on the concrete façade is a reference to the cannelure of the columns of the surrounding historic villas. It is a historical reference imprinted in the modern material of the façade.
