Mrakodrap

Ostrava-město, Ostrava, Ostrčilova

About the project
The residential project is the result of the conversion of a building from 1968 built by the influential architect Jan Slezák. Its current form and appearance is by Eva Jiřičná and Petr Vágner’s renowned AI • DESIGN studio. Like the original structure, with its 24 floors Mrakodrap will continue to be one of Ostrava’s tallest buildings. Fully modernized inside and out, it boasts an eye-catching organic exterior flow, with incorporated balconies and terraces that offer impressive views of the city and the Beskydy Mountains. Its 111 residential units provide unique and comfortable living in the wider center of Ostrava. 

Apartments
In order for the residence to satisfy housing demands during all of life’s ages and stages, apartment layouts start at 30 m² and go all the way up to 203 m² and their dispositions range from studios to three-bedrooms. All units feature quality facilities that include triple-glazed large-format aluminum windows, vinyl floors, large-format tiles, walk-in showers and brand-name sanitary ware, and underfloor heating with cooling options. The units on the 13th floor and up will have air recovery systems/controlled ventilation, and those from the 20th floor and higher will be prepared for the installation of air-conditioning. Each apartment will also come with a cellar storage unit and residents will have the chance to purchase a garage parking space in the neighboring structure. All units are extended by a balcony full of greenery with an automatic irrigation system. The area around the building will have a pleasant recreational zone with a children’s playground and a park.

Location
Right in the center of Moravská Ostrava, its location allows you to have everything within easy reach—stores, restaurants, cafes, galleries, theaters, and public transport stops (trolleybuses, trams, and buses). Ostrava’s main railway station is also nearby. The surrounding landscaped parks and the bike path along the Ostravice River make this a truly pleasant place to live.
