Perucká Residence is the name of a newly proposed apartment building in the cadastral district of Prague 2—Vinohrady. The area surrounding the future apartment building consists of the steep southern slope of Vinohrady, also known as Perucká stráň. From an urban planning perspective, the character of the development here is distinctly different from that found further up toward Náměstí Míru and on into Vinohrady. Unlike the typical urban block development, the Perucká Slope area features standalone villas, villa complexes, and apartment buildings, complemented by the Komwag manufacturing facility and the Park One office complex. Furthermore, the Perucká Stráň area is part of the Vinohrady—Žižkov—Vršovice urban conservation district.

The new building responds to the urban structure and character of the lots in this area. As architects, we recognize that the urban concept of the villa development on Perucká Street is based on the arrangement of houses along this street, respecting the building line and the built-up area of the lots in their front half.

The project site is located in the lowest part of Perucká Street, which remained undeveloped until the mid-20th century; it was an open plain at that time. A visit to the archives revealed that the entire lower section along Perucká Street was historically occupied by row garages and service buildings (today the Komwag company complex). The project site formerly housed an operational building with apartments for the garage managers and the first row of garages. This building and the garages were demolished in the 1990s, and the site is currently undeveloped and serves as a parking lot for the surrounding buildings.

The new apartment building is designed to have three full above-ground floors, one recessed floor, and one underground floor. The building will include one non-residential space on the ground floor and 15 apartments with associated amenities. The underground level will house parking accessible via an outdoor single-lane ramp, and additional parking spaces will be located at ground level perpendicular to Perucká Street. The undeveloped portion of the lot will be divided into private front gardens belonging to the apartments on the first above-ground floor and landscaped with appropriate greenery.

The building’s architectural style is based on the interplay of individual volumes in a restrained color scheme (white–gray–black). The building is intended to confidently represent modern architecture in a neighborhood of high-quality historic villas, thereby complementing the Perucká Stráň area.
