KOGAA

Czech Republic / Company ID 04222750 QR +

KOGAA creates substance for the built environment, committing to architectural and urban planning projects with a positive impact on users, communities, and the local context. Through our projects, the practice tackles the issue of inactive structures and their adaptation into substitute functions. Based on a strong belief that the more the architect is involved in the whole process, the more efficient, coherent, and sustainable the building is, KOGAA takes pride in leading projects throughout the whole process from the strategy and business plan, through concept and feasibility studies, to technical documentation and getting the permissions, all the way to construction administration, and the strategy to generate attraction.

Project DADA Distrikt
Client DADA Distrikt
Year 2020
Description The building is located adjacent to the brownfields of the historical industrial Zbrojovka area in Brno, facing the river Svitava which is now activated by just a bike lane, and bears the potential of becoming a mediating element to change the whole district. With this intention we designed a corner entrance to the building, transforming the intended residential function into a high-quality urban and urban-communicating multifunctional facility. To further connect the function to the street we planned at the ground level a generous open space plan for hosting commercial and office spaces. The assignment itself, as well as the choice of the object, underlines its industrial aesthetics as an added value. Player’s in today’s real estate market are looking for elements that have an overlap. If this overlap also has a history and a certain degree of complexity, it is all the more attractive. This is, for example, the reason why there has never been any speculation regarding the removal of the elevator car in the courtyard of the building. It is a sculpture of the frozen history of the place and thus becomes an element of luxury of the project.
