Eyes of Brno: Ondřej Chybík - lecture at MZK
Ten years of the Chybik+Kristof studio
When: Tuesday, March 3, 2020 / 6:00 PM
Where: Conference Hall / Ground floor, Moravian Library
Architect Ondřej Chybík, to whom the current episode of the regular series Oči Brna is dedicated, will come to present the work of the studio Chybik+Kristof, which is celebrating ten years of existence this year. More than 50 architects are currently collaborating with the studio in three offices and have participated (or are still participating) in 387 projects not only in the Czech Republic. Which are the most significant ones and which are yet to come? Come and ask.
Ondřej Chybík was born in Brno and also studied at the Faculty of Architecture at VUT. However, his further steps took him beyond the borders of the Czech Republic – he continued his studies in Graz, Austria, completed his postgraduate studies in Zurich, Switzerland, and obtained his first job in Vienna. In 2010, he returned home to establish the architectural studio Chybík+Krištof with Michal Krištof. The first major success was winning the competition for the design of the Czechoslovak Pavilion at Expo 2015 in Milan. The pavilion with a pool and an open green roof was made up of modules so that it could be dismantled and reused after the exhibition ended. For the Furniture Gallery in Brno's Vinohrady, with a façade made of chairs, they received the Grand Prix award for architects in 2017. The pavilion for the Meeting Brno festival on Moravské náměstí also drew attention, recalling significant milestones of the 20th century associated with the location, including the original building of the German House. The studio is also involved in large projects, such as the residential complex on the site of the former Waltrovka factory or the transformation of the brownfield of the former sugar factory, both in Prague. The headquarters of the Lahofer winery in Dobšice is nearing completion, while the construction of the new headquarters for Lesy ČR, which was designed by the architects in the shape of a tree, has been postponed indefinitely. In 2019, the studio became the first in the Czech Republic to receive the Design Vanguard award for young architects, awarded by the American magazine Architectural Record.
