The AFI City office building 1 on the city brownfield in Prague 9 near the Kolbenova metro station is full of interesting architectural and design elements. One of them is the artistically crafted gear motif, which occupies the entire main wall of the reception hall, and is the first thing that welcomes visitors. The work by Czech artist Ivan Komárek is a reminder of the rich industrial past of Vysočany, which was the pride of Czech industry at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries: the most important companies at the time included the Czech-Moravian Machine Factory, Kolben's Electrical Factory and a plant of the engineering company Breitfeld-Daněk, later connected with the world-famous ČKD, but also the carmaker Praga or the Avia Aero aircraft factory.
Developer AFI Europe has completed the first commercial building in the newly built AFI City district on a large brownfield in Prague 9 - Vysočany. The elegant AFI City 1 office tower, with a height of 75 meters, has become a new dominant feature of the rapidly developing location around the Kolbenova metro station. Behind the distinctive façade with an atypical lattice and a pearl effect, there are 17,300 m2 of modern offices, complemented by a retail unit, storage facilities and an underground car park with a capacity of more than 300 parking spaces, a bicycle shed and showers. The construction work was carried out in accordance with the principles of sustainability, so the building has already received the green pre-certification BREEAM Excellent. The CMC architects studio is behind the project design, Gemo was the general contractor for the construction and OM Consulting provided construction supervision. AFI Europe's total investment exceeded 40 million euros.
