Dvořákova vila

Dvořákova vila, Functionalist villa in Braník, Czech Republic.

The Dvořákova villa is a residential building in functionalist style located in Braník, a district of Prague. The house features geometric forms, large windows, and a spatial arrangement that prioritizes efficiency and practicality in its design.

The Dvořák family house is the only new building Jan Kaplický realised in the Czech Republic. He designed it for painter František Dvořák and his wife Ludmila, friends of his parents, and the owner built it himself, continuing even after Kaplický emigrated in 1968. The original owners still live there.

The house was built for the family of painters František and Ludmila Dvořák, friends of Kaplický's parents, and the original owners still live in it. The owner himself led the construction, which continued after Kaplický left Czechoslovakia in 1968. The studio on the ground floor served the family's artistic work.

The villa is located in an accessible residential area of Prague with good public transportation connections and proximity to local amenities. Visitors can view the building from the outside and explore the character of the neighborhood while walking around.

It is Jan Kaplický's only newly built house in the Czech Republic, designed for the artist family František and Ludmila Dvořák, friends of his parents. The owner built it himself while Kaplický was already settling abroad, and the original family still lives there.
