Bastion Florenc hosting – Designblok 2024 is in full swing

The Bastion Florenc building is coming alive with interesting events, the first one being the biggest Central European design and fashion exhibition, Designblok 2024. This building, just purchased by Penta Real Estate, has available space for rent, which we have lent to this great event. We are glad  that Designblok supports young talent from the Czech Republic.

“We are happy to support this year’s Designblok by lending part of Bastion. The connection is a natural one – we turn brownfields into new vibrant neighbourhoods and to do that we need top artists and designers in addition to architects, urban planners and builders,” says David Musil, Managing Director of Penta Real Estate. 

Designers and artists interested in collaborating can also visit Penta Real Estate’s small exhibition in the lower ground floor of the Bastion building. They can learn about projects the firm has completed, and see whether they have the #Courage_To_Create.

“Bastion is a building with great potential – modern, friendly, in the very city centre, perfectly accessible by all modes of transport. I believe that making the building available as part of DesignBlock will allow the public to get to know the building better and show the variability of its possible uses by potential tenants,” says Pavel Streblov, Business Director of Penta Real Estate.

What is a developer doing at Designblok?

Penta Real Estate’s philosophy is to build new buildings in such a way that they elevate their surroundings and that all those involved can be proud of the results of their work. Penta often builds on the sites of long-abandoned industrial sites (64% of all buildings) and brings cutting-edge architecture to cities. We create while focusing on the environment because we want to live, create and work here too.

We need the best architects, but also other top professionals, including designers and artists. 

We want to talk to them about their work and how they can make our buildings, and the public spaces around them, beautiful inside and out so that people feel comfortable. 

We run professionally organised open art competitions that have an independent jury of curators, art experts, academics, city representatives and the artists themselves. It is also an opportunity for previously undiscovered talent, as our projects are usually widely followed, in public locations in city centres.
