Ostrava Tower To Be Tallest In The Czech Republic

CHYBIK + KRISTOF has revealed the design of a skyscraper in the Czech Republic city of Ostrava that, upon completion, will be the tallest building in the country, according to ArchDaily. The 235-m, 56-story Ostrava Tower shifts on its axis and expands outward, offering expansive views over the city. According to the source, the tower echoes the industrial heritage of Ostrava while meeting its new social needs and reactivating a part of the city center and the surrounding public space through a design that alternates levels of publicly accessible functions and private facilities. The project comprises residential units, offices, a congress center, retail services and a hotel, together with a rooftop café, restaurant and bar. The project is due for completion in 2027.
