The reconstruction of the attic of the Tuscan Palace on Hradčanské Square aimed to restore the space’s original airiness, openness, and dignity—while preserving its administrative function. The original layout was fragmented, poorly partitioned, and almost devoid of natural daylight.
The key design principle was the spatial purification of the attic—removing unsuitable dividing walls and opening the space as much as possible, right up to the roof structure. This created a unified, visually connected space that reveals the full monumentality of the original wooden truss.
Individual office workstations are placed within transparent modules—delicate glass boxes with a steel frame. These units maintain the visual and light continuity of the entire space while providing the acoustic and sensory privacy required by the client. As a result, the space is clear, open, and airy—with a clear respect for its historical context.
The dominant interior feature is the exposed structure of the historic roof truss. The massive wooden elements are left as visible as possible and form the main aesthetic layer. New inserted elements only serve a secondary role: materials and color schemes are chosen to be subdued and respectful of the historical character.
An exceptional space was also created in the palace tower, where a meeting room offers a view of Prague Castle. The overall design combines history with functionality, formal restraint with spatial quality—and creates a timeless working environment with a strong sense of place.

The technical challenge of the project was to meet all contemporary standards required for similar spaces—especially the concealment of cooling and heating systems—without any visible interventions in the designed area. This was achieved by placing both new and existing systems behind plasterboard (drywall) partitions at the base of the roof structure and within the raised floors of the glazed boxes.
