Loft house with green roof

DADA Distrikt represents the revitalization of a former textile factory from the 1920s into a multifunctional complex that includes loft living, studios, open space offices, and a green roof garden. The project focused on sustainable technology, preserving industrial character and community living.

- Reconstruction of an industrial building with minimal intervention into the exterior.
- Create a green roof garden to promote biodiversity.
- Installation of a root water purifier to recycle grey water.
- Retention of factory windows with modern insulation properties.

Conversion of a former factory building into loft housing.

Green roof used as a shared community space. The roof is divided into two parts. The community area is a place for sitting or practicing yoga, having flower beds with a wild mix of vegetation. In the second part of the roof – the growing area – each apartment unit has its own raised bed for the production of herbs, small vegetables and fruit.

Water runoff, which the green roof cannot retain, drains together with the gray water from the sinks in the bathrooms into a retention tank in the back garden.

The basic principle of the building is community sharing, specifically of the rooftop spaces.

The location of the building itself is also of great importance, as it is located near an excluded locality, which is gradually being transformed into a pleasant place to live, thanks to these projects.

- Transforming an abandoned industrial building into a vibrant community part of the city.
- Reducing the energy consumption of the building.
- Improving the quality of life of residents through green and blue features.
- Project awarded the Ministry of Industry and Trade Award for Sustainable Conversion of Industrial Areas (2021).
- It contributes to the transformation of an excluded locality (the area around Cejl Street) into a place friendly to life. The newly built Nová Zbrojovka complex is located in the immediate vicinity.

- Transformation of an industrial building into a modern residential and cultural space with an emphasis on preserving its historic character.
- Involving the community in the revitalization process and creating a space that promotes social interaction.
- Implementation of sustainable technologies in the renovation of the historic building.
