The SPOJOVNA Brewery

 The SPOJOVNA brewery is located on the border of three Prague districts - Chodov, Kunratice and Šeberov. This area is unique for its composition of residents.  It is a blend of different worlds (which are also a beer names): študák, being represented by a student hostel, kravaťák – a business one in the nearby office park, and fešák - the common life of the housing estate inhabitants. These worlds intersect in the new brewery. The lunches belong to white collars and the evenings to students and locals.Hence the name of the brewery - SPOJOVNA (THE LINK INN).The grounds consist of the brewery house with its background and a restaurant, a large garden with an outside bar for various sports and cultural activities.&nbs...

Boutique Burma, Dubai Mall

The brand-new boutique Burma takes place in the extension of the famous Dubai Mall. In a space of about 100 square meters, the initial Parisian concept store developed for this brand exists in an entirely different dimension. Suspended elliptical displays float alluringly in the monumental store windows. Inside, the interplay of curves dressed in perforated, lacquered metal grace the entire boutique from floor to ceiling. The matte black of the furniture is echoed in the oval display windows that accompany visitors like a portrait gallery. The undulations of the walls provide a sense of rhythm to the space and conceal the alcoves, more private spacesfor the presentation of unique items, small salons, and VIP spaces. The variably reflecting... More

APARTMENT FOR A MUSICIAN

The subject of design is the furnishing and facilities of a part of the apartment for a musician and his partner. The space in question is a new apartment on the second floor of a new apartment building in Ústí nad Labem. Certain elements of the apartment – floors and windows – were left intact, according to the wish of the client.The inspiration brought in by the owner into the first ideas about the living space came from the interest in the furnishing of old cottages heavily scattered on the surrounding hills of the České Středohoří landscape. Another influence was the client’s love for the sunlit homesteads of Provence. Despite being quite disparate, these visions seemed very concrete. The goal of this project was to combine these inspir... More

PERE IV 44

Piso PereIV44 was reformed with the idea of using it as a tourist apartment for short but vibrant stays. At first, two double bedrooms, white and calm, have their own built-in wardrobe-desks. As second course the bathroom on a burgundy technical floor and separated fom the rest by a mirrored wall broken by two cosy doorways with a soft GREEN FLUORESCENT ambient. And for dessert, the natural light reflects from the mirrors to the white painted brick walls and floods into the kitchen, which seems more like a raised DJ booth than Grandma’s cosy cooking corner.
