Silka blocks instead of reinforced concrete in Brno
The first phase of the Triangl Residence in Brno-Komín, Czech Republic, was completed in May 2022, followed immediately by the construction of the second building, which was finished in spring 2024. Unlike the first building, constructed entirely of reinforced concrete, the second building utilized Silka Tempo large-format calcium silicate units (CSU) in addition to standard Silka blocks.
The Triangl residence was realized by property developer Impera Styl. The two residential buildings are located in the Komín district of Brno, in the Czech Republic. The design of the house was created by Ing. Michaela Jandová, while the architectural plans were drawn up by Ing. Iveta Musilová and Tomáš Vítek. The general contractor of the project is ŽSD, a.s. Brno.
Innovative Design and Comfort
