A building that carries the spirit of Vinohrady

In Vinohrady, a district where Art Nouveau facades and grand apartment buildings tell the story of turn-of-the-century Prague, stands a building from 1909 that has never stopped breathing the spirit of its era. Its composition blends so naturally into the surrounding urban fabric, as though it had always been there.

Inside, history meets the present. A former lightwell at the heart of the building now accommodates a new elevator. Seventeen apartments have been created on the typical floors, while the uppermost floors contain three more spacious apartments that combine the building’s original character with modern comfort.

Generous studio-style glazing opens the loft apartment to light, allowing its airy space to shine. The maisonette brings classical elegance together with a bold contemporary gesture: a glazed loft extension overlooking the inner courtyard, with a terrace that offers its residents a refuge even on a rainy Prague evening.

The sensitive renovation has preserved the building's original character while adding the comforts of modern life. History isn’t kept behind glass here. It remains a natural part of a place meant to be lived in.
