Family villa, Prague - West
Completion:2007
Area:900 m2
Built Up Area:343 m2


The task from the private investor was very understandable and clear - to design and arrange a simple, strong, timeless, clean, and luxurious (in terms of functions and level of equipment) house where "they will want to stay".
In our work, we were nearly unlimited - only by our own responsibility towards the client, whose charisma, decisiveness, and directness allowed for the creation of a house without compromises: an entrance hall with an atelier window of 22 m² at a height of six meters, a see-through fireplace of atypical size, glass interior walls across multiple floors, luxurious lighting, a pool, a whirlpool, both Finnish and steam sauna, top-notch sanitary fixtures, and other furnishing items including kitchen appliances. We appreciated the investor's courage to work with concrete and glass blocks, thoughtfully designed, not gratuitous insights, light impacts, and optical connections with mystery; his courage to accept strong material contrasts and elemental contrasts (stone - glass - water - fire) with millimeter precision, intimate zones in almost black or red "coats" (saunas and adjacent showers, wine cellar, room with a projection screen, bar), very clean and bright day areas (living day space, pool), generous terraces, a bold garden gazebo, and outdoor furniture, an entrance to the garage compositionally played out in relation to the mass of the house, the gradation of fencing, and the division of the garden addressed down to the last detail... All this in complete symbiosis with the feelings of the investor's wife, who advocated for the creation of the entire work.
