About our company
We realize that we have been given an opportunity to co-create our living space; our surrounding environment and the place in which we bring up our children. It is with this sense of responsibility that we approach the implementation of our company’s contracts.
We are committed to building upon the independence, helpfulness and expertise of our staff. When unsure about something, we are not afraid to admit this and ask someone more knowledgeable and experienced for advice.
Our philosophy
Libor Ptáček, Managing Director
- We believe that living in older homes provides a unique charm. We esteem the owners of old houses who fall for this alluring charm, repair these houses, and want to live in them.
- We see a house as an urban element incorporated into its setting, street line, housing development, garden, or park, and we approach it as such.
- We utilize lessons learned from traditional craftsmanship, procedures, and skills, and our work is characterized by a sensitive effort to achieve the highest possible standard of contemporary living.
- We value the willingness of the most experienced experts in our field to share advice with us.
- We realize there are actual people behind our work, and the fruit of their labor become our results.
- We believe that the best investment in the future is an investment in our workers and co-workers, as well as in the creation of conditions to pass experience from generation to generation, as has always been a tradition in our field.
