The area of ​​the Smíchov railway station is undergoing a radical transformation.

The Smíchov railway station area will undergo a radical transformation. The modern Municipal District of Smíchov City arising between two metro stations, Na Knížecí and Smíchovské nádraží, offers almost 400 000 sqm of residential, administration, commercial and public space. We prepared an announced architectural competition for the first stage of construction in collaboration with the investor Sekyra Group. New residents will move into homes designed by architectural studios Kuba & Pilař architekti, Haascookzemmrich STUDIO 2050, Chalupa architekti, LÁBUS AA – Architektonický Ateliér, D3A or Projektil architekti in the space of a few years

Kuba & Pilař architekti

The competition proposal submitted by the Kuba & Pilař architekti studio interested the jury with its convincing concept of a traditional block with oscillating levels of the roofs of individual buildings. This concept could become the implementation principle for the development of new Smíchov. The composition of the blocks and the grading of the buildings is not formal, but responds to the downward terrain of the area and the structure of buildings and inner yards, which meet the expectations of a peaceful residential area in the city. The winning competition proposal also convinced the jury more than any of the other competition proposals submitted with its design for the connection of an office and residential building in Section I. The diversity and originality of the built-up area in the competition proposal is further based on the addition of residential sections potentially designed by different designers, in which the jury and the competition announcer both see as having major potential and as fundamentally achieving the principles of the competition.
