New construction of a family house on the site of the original building, whose technical and moral condition was completely inadequate and did not meet the standards of modern living. For this reason, we proposed the removal of the existing structure and its replacement with a new building that reflects the current demands for comfortable and quality living.
The location is situated in a prestigious part of Prague, on Baba Hill, which is historically associated with functionalist architecture. This character became the main inspiration for the design – an emphasis on simplicity, logic of the layout, functionality, and connection with the surrounding environment.
The new villa respects the scale and urban context of the surroundings while simultaneously bringing a modern expression and architectural quality worthy of the 21st century. The volumetric division of the building reflects the functional arrangement of the interior and the natural segmentation towards views, light, and privacy.
The heart of the house is an expansive, open two-story space that ensures airiness, natural lighting, and a connection between individual functional units. This central area is also the communication and visual hub of the house, around which other living rooms are "packaged."
On the ground floor, the interior is maximally connected to the garden. The centerpiece is a dining table placed in the center of the open space. This seamlessly transitions into a kitchen nook, a living area with a television, and a separate study, creating a variable and vibrant environment that responds to the daily needs of the residents.
The upper floor with the bedrooms offers a quiet zone with plenty of privacy. Each bedroom has its own storage spaces, with an emphasis on practicality and quality of natural light.
The recessed roof floor creates an intimate living space with access to a terrace that offers beautiful views of the surroundings. This "captain's bridge" provides an exceptional spot for relaxation and contemplation.
The expressive solution of the building is based on the principles of functionalism – clean, plastered white facades complemented by lines above the roofing, the accent of a round window facing the street, or the rounded corner by the sliding garage door. Modern materials and technologies have been used to meet high demands for energy efficiency, acoustic comfort, and long lifespan of the building.
The designed new construction of the villa seeks to achieve a harmonious connection between functionalist inspiration and the requirements of contemporary life. The house offers its residents an airy and quality living space with an emphasis on light, privacy, openness, and direct contact with the exteriors. The result is simple architecture firmly anchored in a location full of functionalist gems. We are honored to be part of this selected company.
