A reinforced-concrete modular crystal is planted on the side of the hill in Černošice near Prague. This unusual home design raises the living area above the neighbour’s roofs to provide an undisturbed view of the Berounka river valley. Even though the house may appear somewhat extravagant initially, it blended in naturally, over time, with its forest-like garden.

This architectural gem from 1933, which according to some sources may have come from the pen of Bohuslav Fuchs himself, found its rescuers in the form of conscious new owners literally in 5 minutes to 12. They decided to carry out a thorough reconstruction that would reflect the highest standards of modern living for a large family of eight, but would also respect the original atmosphere of the 1930s. The house has therefore undergone a major renovation that is so inspiring and successful that it has reached the finals of the prestigious Architects' Grand Prix - National Architecture Award 2022.
