Dezeen Debate features a "clean" and "simple" revamp of a 1920s house in Prague
The latest edition of our weekly Dezeen Debate newsletter features No Architects' "seamless" renovation and extension of a 1920s house in Prague. Subscribe to Dezeen Debate now.
No Architects' extensive revamp aimed to retain the character of the house, which was built in the 1920s in a romantic style that references arts and crafts-style English villas.
"Our addition refers to the original facade details and is hardly recognisable as separate to the original house," the studio's co-founder Jakub Filip Novák told Dezeen.
Commenters had nothing but praise for the project.
"Love the clean lines, the simple gestures, the quiet flourishes," wrote one. "With the historic muted greens and blues complementing the wood, it reminds me of Shaker modernism here in the States. Really beautiful spaces."
Other stories in this week's newsletter include a "superbly configured" co-operative housing project in Japan, a roundup of the architecture projects not to miss in 2023 and a Zaha Hadid Architects-designed modular tent classroom for refugees.
