A study of a family home next to the Vyšehrad Railway Bridge on the track from Prague Smíchov Station to Prague Main Station. This site is very attractive thanks to its location in the city, but subsequently imposes a number of challenges. It is very close to quite a busy train track and includes a few railway facilities, obstructing the already considerably narrow site. The house is designed in the manner of a railway and its special window shutter system doesn´t force the inhabitants to choose between the view and privacy. All of the living spaces have a view of the tracks and the uniquely shaped windows offer space for viewing, working and relaxation.
