Model Dreamers loft, Vanguard, Modřany

A model Dreamers loft in the style of modernism of the First Republic era was built in Prague's Vanguard

One of the four model lofts in Prague's Vanguard project, which will offer 150 lofts in a former aircraft factory when it is completed next year, was designed by Prague-based studio Skull. They have transformed the interior from a shell & core state into a combination of modernism, futurism and functionalism. The vast majority of the apartment is open plan. An interesting feature is the rounded kitchen or the freestanding bathtub between the sofa and the bed. Modernist added a unique two-tone chaise longue designed by Adolf Loos, tubular dining chairs, an aerial armchair with footstool and an original tubular couch dressed in luxurious Sorensen leather. The interior was also complemented with handmade functionalist lamps from our workshop. Concept: Svoboda & Williams, Bet Orten. The design of the penthouse VNG 903 - Globetrotter is a fusion of (post)industrial architecture with the spirit of early 20th century modernism. The interior design is imbued with the spirit of an imaginary hero. A visionary. A time traveller. A globetrotter who follows the spiral of modernity with precise focus. But he does not live only in the past; he has the imagination and the means to co-create the shape of the future. The word "co-create" is the key to understanding the distribution of spatial functions. The large open space is the cornerstone of the definition of a loft. Movable walls and curtains allow for a flexible division of living zones without sacrificing the open airy and liberating dimension of the space. Modern futurism and functionalism are united by a fascination with clean lines energized by moving aerodynamic shapes and rounded corners. Even the palette of elemental materials is subordinated to classic modernism: metal, concrete, wood, stone and glass. SKULL studio
