Award-Winning Industrial Living
Riverside Lofts & Studios in Brno

"A transformation of industrial heritage into a vibrant residential community..."

About Project

DADA Distrikt is a successful revitalization of a four-story industrial building on the Svitava river bank. What began as a vision is now a fully realized cultural, social, and residential center in Brno.

Completed in 2020, the project maximized the utilization of the space while emphasizing its industrial character. The result is an award-winning development that connects like-minded people through shared spaces, including a spectacular rooftop garden.

Recognized by:
Czech Architecture Award 2021 (Ministry of Industry and Trade Prize)
Adapterra Awards 2022

The four stories of former production halls have been converted into generous lofts, studios, and offices. The building features a green roof that serves as a community garden, promoting sustainability and social interaction.

Location

Sekaninova 3 Brno

The latest studies and initiatives of the city architects show revitalization of the Svitava riverbank. In 4-5 years time Husovice will become a synonym for leisure time & culture and a sought after destination for living in a close proximity to the city center while surrounded by peaceful greenery and river.

Community & Financing

The "Baugruppe" Model: Shared Funding & Ownership
DADA Distrikt was realized through a unique financing model based on shared funding and direct sales, similar to the "Baugruppe" system. This approach involved a group of individuals pooling resources to co-own and reconstruct the building.

By bypassing traditional developer profit margins and real estate agency fees, we achieved an economical high-quality reconstruction. This direct involvement of future residents has fostered a strong, invested community from day one, ensuring the building serves the needs of those who actually live there.

Award-Winning Sustainability: Green Roof of the Year 2022
Our commitment to sustainability was recognized when DADA Distrikt won 1st Place in the "Public Intensive Roof" category at the Zelená střecha roku 2022 awards. The 400 m² rooftop garden manages stormwater, filters greywater, and provides a beautiful shared space for our community to grow.

Green Roof of the Year

Our 400 m² intensive rooftop garden is a pioneer in urban sustainability. In 2022, it was awarded 1st Place in the "Public Intensive Roof" category at the Zelená střecha roku awards.

More than just a garden, it's a living laboratory. The roof catches 100% of rainwater and utilizes recycled greywater from the building's apartments for subsurface irrigation—creating a completely closed-loop water system.

The space features year-round vegetable production, a mini-bar, a patio, and a greenhouse, serving as a vibrant social hub where residents connect with nature and each other.

Gray & White water


In DADA distrikt, we tried to apply as many sustainable solutions as possible in order to 'connect residents to light, air, food, nature, and community'. Our building collects all its grey water, treats it with a bio-filtration and plumbs it back to the house to be used for flushing toilets as well as sub-surface irrigation in the rooftop garden.

Our roof as well as remaining area of the property catches 100% of rainwater which is also pumped onto the roof for a surface irrigation, thus creating a closed-loop water system.

Rooftop garden offers production as well as leisure areas. We also intend to keep it open for educational excursions, courses and other events.
