A young Prague couple decided to extend their small attic apartment to better suit the needs of a family life. The apartment is located in a semi-detached house in a small neighborhood built in the early 1920s in a unique Czech Art Deco style. The neighborhood was named Liberty to celebrate newly established Czechoslovakia.
