Skanska's Petr Dušta and Ondřej Flanderka, together with architect Ondřej Mundl from Chybik + Kristof Architects, walk us through the remarkable transformation of a former industrial site into the vibrant Modřanský Cukrovar neighborhood.
We examine some of the smart innovations that are saving water, reducing energy consumption, cutting carbon emissions, and contributing to increased biodiversity.
And we get a glimpse into the thoughtfully designed residences, especially the flexible, high-quality living spaces that contribute to a thriving urban community.
But what makes Modřanský Cukrovar truly impressive is how quickly it has developed into a lively and engaged community – largely thanks to an inclusive urban planning process where local residents had a say in shaping the common areas and infrastructure they desired.
Guests in this episode:
- Ondřej Mundl: Architect, Design Director at Chybik + Kristof Architects

- Petr Dušta: Senior Project Manager at Skanska Residential Europe.
