According to the current report of the real estate consulting company Cushman & Wakefield, the commercial real estate market in 2023 in the Central and Eastern European region saw a significant decrease in investment volume: year-on-year it was a 55% reduction to a total of 5.02 billion euros. The largest part of the capital went to the office sector, which also saw the most significant increase in income. Despite the complications, the market is showing resilience, especially in the logistics and residential sectors, which are the areas with the greatest potential for growth.

The share of foreign and Czech companies based in Prague offices is equal. Although almost three-quarters of them are currently occupied by foreign companies, the demand for new premises is more domestic companies. Established foreign companies in many cases prefer to stay in established locations and renegotiate existing leases. One of the reasons preventing the further arrival of foreign companies on the Czech market may also be insufficient construction of new areas. Therefore, companies often look for locations for their centers in other European cities, this follows from the comments of experts and the findings of ČTK.

Every building is given strengths and weaknesses by the architect. It is necessary to design technology in such a way as to eliminate the weak points as much as possible, and on the contrary to make appropriate use of the strong points. Technologies tend to be expensive, so it is essential to make maximum use of their potential and possible synergistic effects.
The new look of Vítězné náměstí in Prague's Dejvice will begin to take shape thanks to the winning proposal from the consortium of studios Benthem Crouwel Architects, Opočenský Valouch Architekti, Rehwaldt Landscape Architects, PUDIS and AED.
