The Žižkovské zahrady residential project, developed by CPI Rezidence, will include a new sculptural installation by Czech artist Jan Dostál. The sculpture, made of patinated Corten steel and inspired by natural forms, is planned for the project’s central courtyard and will be integrated into the landscaped green space. According to CPI Rezidence’s sales director Milena Zavadilová, the inclusion of the sculpture reflects a broader approach to residential development that considers not only housing quality and location, but also the visual and cultural environment. She noted that aesthetics and sustainability are increasingly important to prospective buyers, particularly younger residents. Jan Dostál, known for his large-scale metal sculptures in public spaces across the Czech Republic and internationally, described the installation as a light, abstract form that complements the character of the inner courtyard. He emphasized the use of raw materials that develop a natural patina over time, allowing the sculpture to integrate into its surroundings without dominating the space. The Žižkovské zahrady project is set to deliver 210 residential units, each with outdoor space such as a balcony, terrace, or garden. Designed in cooperation with MS architekti, the development emphasizes sustainable design and quality construction. Work on the project began in 2024, with completion expected by the end of 2026. The sculpture will be installed during the final phase of construction as part of a broader effort to integrate housing, landscaping, and contemporary art.
