The Chalupkova Bratislava project is a transformative initiative, breathing new life into a long-neglected brownfield. This ambitious endeavor aims to create a vibrant, cohesive community while maintaining a respectful dialogue with existing architectural landmarks. At its core, Chalupkova Bratislava is more than a physical metamorphosis—it's an iconic expression, both volumetric and tectonic.

By embracing the concept of "porosity," the design weaves together varied volumetric elements, breaking down the scale into a harmonious composition. Internal courtyards and thoughtfully positioned access points facilitate seamless movement, creating a dynamic interplay of light and gravity. The project

achieves simplicity while preserving the human scale through elements like loggias, balconies, and recesses, imbuing the space with shadows and material richness.

Beyond aesthetics, it aspires to become an environmental and sustainable landmark within the urban landscape. Recognizing the profound impact of architecture on quality of life, the site is envisioned as a prototype for a new way of living and working. Green mobility takes center stage, with a commitment to promoting electric cars, public transport, and a bicycle culture. The plot's organization prioritizes cyclists and pedestrians, fostering an efficient, healthy, and safe mobility system.

Furthermore, the integration of extensive green spaces, both public, semi-private, and private, contributes to biodiversity and temperature balance throughout the seasons. The landscape flows continuously and offers opportunities for outdoor experiences. Because we understand the inherent value of natural elements, Chalupkova Bratislava enhances the occupants' quality of life. Indeed, green surfaces are not just for aesthetics; they are strategically employed for water retention, emphasizing a commitment to sustainability.

Therefore, Chalupkova Bratislava explores innovative building methods, including hybrid structures. In addition, timber frames and cross-laminated timber are seamlessly integrated with concrete layers to meet safety regulations. Loggias and intermediate frames incorporate mass timber, demonstrating a holistic approach that marries sustainability with cutting-edge construction techniques. Most importantly, Chalupkova Bratislava positions itself as a beacon of positive change, embodying continuity, transformation, and regeneration for Bratislava's urban landscape.

As a result, Chalupkova Bratislava is designed as a mixed-use development with a predominant residential focus that encompasses a total above-ground floor area of around 130,075 square meters. All ground floors are dedicated to retail, allowing the whole plot to be relatively self-sufficient and a point of attraction. In short, this innovative project expands the new city center to the northern bank of the Danube River, connecting the old historical city center.
