The second project selected through our open call 4 Transformations for Berlin, currently being developed by our team at Aedes Architecture and Space, is Frankfurter Allee!

Around Frankfurter Allee station, our team will investigate how new high-rise development can improve the wider urban environment. Submitted by the district administration of Lichtenberg, with a private landowner’s proposed tower providing a starting point, the brief addresses a well-connected but fragmented area where transport and retail dominate.

The proposal will focus on connections between the station, neighbouring residential areas and public spaces, improving pedestrian comfort and transfers between modes of transport while introducing more greenery and places to spend time.

Our exhibition CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City connects this challenge with our past project – Nusle Brewery neighbourhood in Prague.

Project details are now on display at Aedes Architecture and Space.

Everyone is welcome to visit throughout the six-week exhibition, talk to our team, participate, and follow the design process as it unfolds.

The final proposal will be presented at the exhibition closing on 3 December.

Jihlava Municipal Arena received the Grand Prix Architektů – the Czech National Architecture Award!

We would like to thank the Mayor of Město Jihlava, Petr Ryška, and City Councillor David Beke for their trust and collaboration, and for giving us the opportunity to demonstrate that a multifunctional arena can be an integral part of the city rather than a standalone building on its outskirts.

And of course, we’re very grateful to the jury of Obec Architektů for this recognition.

We opened the doors to our live working studio and exhibition at Aedes Architecture and Space last Thursday!

Over 300 visitors joined us to unveil the four Berlin-based projects selected through our public open call.

Our team has actively begun developing these projects right at the gallery space throughout the six-week-long exhibition.

The selected projects reflect the exhibition’s core themes:

ACTIVATE — Innsbrucker Platz
LIVE — Frankfurter Allee
ADAPT — Dragonerareal
PLAY — SpOrt365 Sommerbad Seestraße

We’re happy to work on such remarkable sites with the partners of each project. The final design proposals will be presented at the closing on 3 December.

Alongside the live design process, which visitors are invited to engage with throughout the exhibition, we present 20 of our projects from the past decade, organized around these four themes.

Each theme is further explored through a live accompanying programme of guest lectures, workshops, film screenings, and urban walks.

The full programme is available via the link in the comments.

We’re thankful to Miriam Mlecek and Dunya Bouchi from Aedes Architecture and Space for joining our founding partners Ondřej Chybík and Michal Krištof for the opening speech, and to Anna Beata Háblová for an incredible slam poetry performance.

Thank you also to our partners for their support in making this exhibition possible: Nadace PPF, GROHE, BRNOmycity, Vitra | mmcité street furniture |, Tschechisches Zentrum Berlin, CzechTourism.

And especially, thank you to everyone who came and become part of our open studio.

We’re happy to introduce the first project — selected through our open call for the theme ACTIVATE — which our team is now developing as part of our open studio and exhibition: Innsbrucker Platz!

Innsbrucker Platz currently functions primarily as a transport interchange, surrounded by barriers to free movement. With a new residential neighborhood emerging nearby, it creates an opportunity for its redevelopment by redefining the site’s role within the urban fabric.

During the exhibition, our team will explore how this site can evolve into an open public space for the surrounding neighborhood and local communities. Submitted by the district administration of Tempelhof-Schöneberg, the brief calls for better pedestrian connections between the square, nearby green spaces, and areas beneath the railway viaduct — creating opportunities for meeting, play, and everyday recreation.

Building on an existing feasibility study, the proposals will also consider planting, shading, and rainwater management.

The project draws on our experience of transforming Mendel Square in Brno, presented in the exhibition as an example of how a transport-dominated space can
support an active public life.

Project details are now on display at .

Everyone is welcome to visit throughout the six-week exhibition, talk to our team, participate, and follow the design process as it unfolds.

The final proposal will be presented at the exhibition closing on 3 December.

Ke stému výročí narození Ivana Rullera, které připadá na 17. listopadu 2026.

Milý pane profesore, letos v listopadu by Vám bylo sto let. Píši Vám jako svému učiteli, jako architektovi, s nímž jsem měl možnost spolupracovat, a jako kolegovi, jehož práci dnes díky vlastní zkušenosti rozumím zase o něco víc.

Když jsme o téměř půl století později navrhovali městskou halu v Jihlavě, řešili jsme podobná témata jako Vy u brněnského Ronda. Jak tak velký dům zasadit do města, jak jej propojit s každodenním životem a jakou tvář má ukazovat svému okolí. A také jak obhájit promyšlenou fasádu před těmi, kteří v ní vidí jen plochu k pronájmu.

O to víc mě mrzí pohled na Vaše Rondo. Na promyšlené členění jeho fasády, na rytmus a práci se světlem, které dnes nepochopitelně překrývají reklamy.

Ke stým narozeninám bych Vám chtěl dát jeden konkrétní dárek: aby z Vašeho Ronda jednou provždy zmizely ty neuvěřitelně nevkusné billboardy. Včetně všech nosičů a konstrukcí. Aby se fasáda skutečně odkryla a Váš dům mohl být znovu vidět.

Doufám, že se k tomu nové vedení Brna odhodlá. Že ve Vašem výročí uvidí příležitost udělat pro Vaše dílo něco konkrétního. Rondo je městská hala a péče o jeho architekturu patří k odpovědnosti města. Právě na takovém domě může Brno ukázat, jak si svých architektů a jejich práce váží.

Děkuji Vám za možnost být Vaším studentem i krátce spolupracovníkem. Přál bych si, abychom Vám tenhle narozeninový dárek společně dokázali dát.

S úctou a vděčností Ondřej Chybík

Open Call: 4 Transformations for Berlin extended until 18 October!

Public and private organisations, local authorities, property owners, cultural and non-profit institutions and individuals are still invited to submit a building, site, or urban situation in Berlin that needs a new future.

The four selected projects will become the focus of our upcoming exhibition, CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City at Aedes Architecture Forum, and our team will be actively developing them pro bono throughout the six-week exhibition period right at the gallery.

The selected projects will be introduced at the opening on 22 October.

In less than two weeks, our studio will open the first monographic exhibition in Germany, on 22 October at 18:30!

Until 3 December 2026, we will transform into a live working architecture studio, where visitors can follow a real design process as it unfolds.

We will bring part of our team directly to the gallery to work on four specific projects for Berlin – selected through an Open Call. Conceived as an open process rather than a static display, the exhibition called CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City will therefore serve as a platform for exchange and debate with the organisations and communities connected to each selected place, experts, academia, and the broader public.

The final proposals will then be presented at the closing event.

Alongside the open studio, the space will be activated by a programme of film screenings, lectures by renowned architecture professionals, and workshops for universities and the public.

In parallel, 20 of our projects will be showcased through four core themes—PLAY, LIVE, ACTIVATE, and ADAPT—exploring how architecture can strengthen public life and existing neighbourhoods.

Berlin, we’re looking for places that need a new future!

We invite public and private organisations, communities, and individuals to apply with their projects via the Open Call: 4 Transformations for Berlin.

As part of our upcoming exhibition, our studio will work pro bono on four of these directly in — turning the gallery into an active studio and creating real proposals for the city.

Submit your project via the link in our bio by October 11.

We're happy to announce that our design proposal for Nové Holešovice – a mixed-use district in Prague – has won 1st prize in the international competition! 🏆

Today, Nádraží Holešovice serves mainly as a transit hub. While our proposal preserves this function, it also transforms the site into a place to spend time, not just pass through. Around the transit hub, we are therefore introducing a new public square, complemented by local services and a mix of uses that give the area an identity of its own.

This design approach of stitching together the existing urban fabric is at the core of our studio’s practice, which we embed into our work across Europe.

We explore this theme further in our upcoming exhibition, CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City, opening this fall in Berlin.

A big thank you to our team and partners LOLA landscape architects, AFRY CZ, and Marko&Placemakers for your dedication and exceptional effort on this project!

EXTENDED UNTIL 18 OCTOBER!

Berlin, bring us a place in need of a new future.

This autumn, we are transforming the Aedes space into a temporary CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF studio.
Running from 22 October to 3 December 2026, the exhibition titled CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City will not just present finished work. It will turn the gallery into a place of architectural production, opening up the design process as it unfolds.

OPEN CALL: 4 TRANSFORMATIONS FOR BERLIN
We invite Berliners, public and private institutions and civic groups to submit a building, site or urban situation in need of transformation. Throughout the six-week exhibition, our team will develop proposals for four selected challenges directly in front of gallery visitors—offering a live insight into the work of architects through research, design, discussion and collaboration.
Find out more about the open call, running until 18 October, via the link in the comments.

Alongside the design process, the exhibition will present 20 projects across four themes—PLAY, LIVE, ADAPT and ACTIVATE—through drawings, models, films and ongoing research. A weekly programme of reviews, lectures, conversations, screenings, book talks and open studios will make the gallery a platform for testing and developing ideas with the public.
