Place
The competition site is an integral part of the Victory Square–a landmark at the heart of Dejvice locality. The current urban structure of Dejvice was initially established in the 1920s according to the master plan of professor Antonin Engel. The plan was based on a symmetrical composition with the Victory Sqaure at its central core. The north-western quadrant of the Victory Square had not yet been developed leaving the square composition incomplete and disintegrating the entire urban structure of the area. The Fourth Quadrant company collaborates with Prague University of Chemistry and Technology on the plan to develop the empty site finally completing the initial structure of Dejvice.
Participation
Key stakeholders together with the civic society were involved in the development of the Competition Brief. During May and June 2022 the public were able to provide their assessment of the current state of the competition area via an online questionnaire. The members of the consultation group, composed of the active citizens and key stakeholders had the opportunity to consult the Competition Brief framework. The results of the public participation became the basis for the development of the Brief. In the first half of year 2023 the members of the consultation group will have the opportunity to consult the selected competition proposals.
