Free Architects Prague, based in Prague, is an architectural office focused on designing residential and commercial buildings, as well as interior design and redevelopment projects. The organization provides services such as building design, optimization of real estate products, reverse development, redesign of non-marketable property portfolios, and custom furniture solutions.
Founded by a group of Czech architects in Prague, the studio emphasizes adaptability to different stages of construction—stepping in from the initial design phase or later, optimizing existing projects for better functionality or marketability. Its expertise is especially evident in instances where they are brought onto projects already in progress, a relatively rare specialization among Czech architectural practices. One example is the Vítkov Flats in central Prague, where Free Architects Prague was engaged after main construction had begun and nearly half of the apartments were already built. Their intervention, which focused on improved layouts and increased room counts, led to increased sales and received the Real Estate Project of 2014 award for Prague 3.
Another notable development is Bubeneč Gardens, a luxury residential project for MK Real Estate, known for its individualized apartments and bespoke solutions. Free Architects Prague operates not only in Prague but also in other Czech cities like Brno, with activities extending to both new builds and rebuilding or repurposing existing structures.
The studio is composed of Czech architects with practical experience, and its scope ranges from single-family housing to mid-scale commercial developments. Free Architects Prague positions itself as a flexible partner for both developers and private clients, especially when it comes to optimizing architectural schemes under changing market conditions.
