The architecture of apartment buildings is based on their location. The main view overlooks the river Vltava, which is in close. Every house has five above-ground floors. There are always two houses connected by common above-ground garages, which are creating notional pedestal of the buildings. The garage roofing is also creating private gardens for individual flats. The above-ground garages were chosen because of possible floods.
