office

DAM architekti has been operating on the Czech market for over 30 years. We design buildings in the Czech Republic and abroad. Among the most prominent projects are the BBC Filadelfie office building, Main Point Pankrác, and Palác Euro on Wenceslas Square. In addition to new buildings, a significant part of our portfolio is retrofitting historic buildings, often accompanied by modern additions. DAM's permanent staff currently consists of a team of usually 15 people - most of them architects. In addition, DAM is supported by a range of experienced specialist offices employing professionals in other disciplines. Therefore, we can guarantee a comprehensive delivery of design work, including consultation, even for large-scale investment projects. We are the only Czech office awarded the Best Office Building in the World in the MIPIM Award for the Main Point Karlín building.

The history of the office dates to 1989, when its founders, Richard Doležal and Petr Malinský, first met. Two years later, in 1991, the DAM brand was officially established. In the new millennium's first two decades, five architects led the office: Richard Doležal, Petr Burian, Jiří Havrda, Jiří Hejda, and Jan Holna. The office currently has two managing partners, Jiří Hejda and Jan Holna, who run the office together with the founding partner Richard Doležal.
