With „Timber Praha”, UBM Development is developing the Czech Republic’s first sustainable apartment buildings in timber construction. The 62 residential units are part of the „Arcus City” residential complex, a development with a total of 270 flats, ten detached houses and five shopping arcades in the fast-growing Stodulky district of Prague. The houses offer maximum energy efficiency in operation through the use of geothermal energy, heat pumps and photovoltaics. The timber construction, produced by the Austrian company ELK, consists of solid CLT panels for the load-bearing interior walls and ceilings, while the exterior walls of the façade are of timber frame construction. The 62 flats are between 39 and 110 square metres in size. Timber Praha is aiming for BREEAM Excellent certification and an energy certificate of the most economical category A.
