PVL

The subject of the competition was to design a new operational area in Strakonice for the needs of the Povodí Vltavy company, including the concept of the interior. One part of the premises will be administrative and publicly accessible, and the other part will be service premises with access for employees only.

The client wishes to set an example of environmental friendliness and water management. The operational complex of the Vltava River Basin in Strakonice should be a model of sustainable construction not only for the public sector.
"Povodí Vltavy" means Vltava River Basin, and the state company of the same name takes care of all the waters above and below ground that flow into the Vltava River.
