Work is set to begin on the redevelopment of a city block in the historic centre of Prague<\/a> into shops and offices surrounding a central square by UK practice Heatherwick Studio<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Named Savarin, the development will see contemporary additions to the enclosed centre of the block, which borders the Wenceslas Square boulevard, while several of the external buildings are renovated.<\/p>\n

The project for developer Crestyl recently received its final building permits, allowing construction of the main phase of the project to commence.<\/p>\n

Masterplanned by Heatherwick Studio<\/a>, the 15,000-square-metre development will be built around a public square alongside the historic riding hall at the centre of the block.<\/p>\n

“Prague is one of the most beautiful and inspiring cities in the world, and me and my team has felt a deep responsibility working on such a significant site,” said Heatherwick Studio founder Thomas Heatherwick.<\/p>\n

“Our design for Savarin is rooted in the incredible details, materials and craftsmanship of the city but it’s also about creating something new \u2013 a public space that feels alive, open and generous.”<\/p>\n

\"Shops
Several new blocks for shops and offices will be built<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This central square, which will be accessed through passageways from all four surrounding streets, will be flanked by commercial and office blocks.<\/p>\n

Each of the blocks designed by Heatherwick Studio will step back from the central space as they rise, with open-air staircases providing access to the upper levels.<\/p>\n
