Scott.Weber Workspace unveils premium flexible offices in historic Prague landmark

Scott.Weber Workspace is set to open its largest and most ambitious flexible office project to date at Náměstí Republiky 7, Prague 1, breathing new life into a historic building meticulously renovated by Crestyl. The prestigious address, which has hosted banks, insurance companies, and even the Laurin & Klement car company over the past century, will now serve as a modern workspace hub that merges history with cutting-edge office design. The official opening is scheduled for the second quarter of 2025.

The eight-story building, located in the heart of Prague, has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment under Crestyl’s NR7 project at a total investment of over one billion crowns. The transformation has resulted in 4,630 square meters of premium office space featuring 90 private offices, 17 meeting rooms, a stunning atrium, rooftop terraces, a winter garden, and unique event spaces.

“This project represents our vision for the future of work, where functionality meets inspiration,” said Adam Zvada, CEO of Scott.Weber Workspace. “We are creating an environment that enhances both professional productivity and personal well-being.”

Crestyl’s renovation focused on preserving the building’s neo-Baroque heritage while incorporating modern design elements. “Our goal was to restore the building to its original splendor and ensure it remains a prestigious location for businesses,” said Simon Johnson, Director at Crestyl.

Beyond offering a workspace, Náměstí Republiky 7 is positioned as a lifestyle destination that integrates work with leisure and community engagement. The development boasts world-class dining experiences, wellness facilities, and an engaging events program aimed at enhancing workplace productivity and personal fulfillment. The complex’s strategic location provides excellent accessibility via public transport and proximity to major business hubs.

Architectural firm Chapman Taylor, known for projects such as the W Hotel Prague, led the design concept, balancing modern functionality with the building’s historic character. “We aimed to create a space that fosters inspiration and collaboration while respecting the building’s legacy,” explained Filip Pokorný, Director at Chapman Taylor.

Scott.Weber Workspace’s partnership with Prochazka & Partners, Wilsons Law Firm, and the building’s owner, Crestyl, was crucial in securing and shaping the lease agreement. Radek Prochazka, Managing Partner at Prochazka & Partners, expressed excitement about the project, highlighting the seamless fusion of history and modernity that makes the property a standout addition to Prague’s office market.

Jana Hogg, Real Estate & Development Director at Scott.Weber Workspace, emphasized that every aspect of the building is designed to offer an extraordinary daily experience, from a morning workout in the former bank vault to a rooftop breakfast with panoramic views of Prague’s skyline.

The unique flexible office model offered at Náměstí Republiky 7 is set to exceed expectations by providing services akin to a luxury hotel, including on-site wellness facilities, personal care services, and high-end gastronomy led by Chef Mark Koucký.

“This project not only modernizes a historic gem but prepares it for the evolving demands of flexible working,” said Daniel Navrátil, partner at Wilsons. “It’s rare to see such a seamless blend of tradition and forward-thinking office solutions.”
