The architectural studio Studio acht has been operating in the Czech Republic under the leadership of Václav Hlaváček since 1993 and continues as the third generation of the Dutch studio founded in Rotterdam in 1973.
“We combine Dutch modesty and a sense of urbanism with Central European poetism, sensitivity to landscape, and heritage. We appreciate challenges in the form of converting neglected brownfields into new pulsating urban districts. We take it as our mission to breathe new life into heritage; we restore not only their facades but also their purpose in a sensitive manner. All our projects take into account the passage of time and market evolution and are designed with an eye towards changes that allow for development. We enjoy architecture that humbly approaches its surroundings while still standing out. We value timelessness more than trends.”
