Our studio has overhauled a 1990s bungalow near Czech capital Prague, transforming an interior that once seemed small and cramped into one that feels bright and spacious. Complicated roof structure of the building is looking little bit dated from the outside. But from the inside it creates very special space.

Maisonette in Prague's Letná, a six-month road trip with children around the United States and a passion for the Czech graffiti scene and art in general. From the simple assignment of minor layout adjustments for easier functioning of the family, in which the children will start going to school one by one after the "last" holidays, the overall face...

The number sixty-nine is more than a sexually coded reference, which was not the inspiration for designing this space. However, neither the number sixty-nine nor the colors used are random. The inspiration for the interior and its numeric theme were paintings.

A simple house on the border between buildings and landscape which provides a background for the creation and life of the owners. Premek´s land looked like a nice peaceful meadow under the forest but the whole thing looked easier than it actually was. The land lies on the border of the third and fourth zones of the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area.

The reconstruction of a terrace house for the needs and comfortable urban living with the current standards for a family. The same terrace house design repeats in a few streets, using pseudo-mansard roofs, partial prefabrication, and materials from the early 1990s. An extravagant house that doesn't break set rules.

A radical remodel of a 1990s attic apartment in Prague Libeň. We are in the attic of a 1930s townhouse in Prague Libeň. An apartment was built here in the 1990s. But there were too many rooms, more than the client needed, anyway. The joy of open attic space was lost in the clutter. Our task was to find it again.
