Construction of the Hila building in Prague’s Brumlovka district is progressing on schedule, with completion expected by the end of 2026. Located on Vyskočilova Avenue, the project by Passerinvest Group will introduce a combination of office, retail, and residential spaces within a single development.
By the end of 2024, excavation work removed 68,000 cubic meters of soil, and more than 200 piles were drilled. In early 2025, the concrete foundation slab was completed, and construction of the basement levels is now underway, with completion expected in spring. The building will include 20,200 square meters of office space and 2,400 square meters of retail space, with 71 rental apartments set to be available in the first half of 2027.
According to Eduard Forejt, Director of Development and Business at Passerinvest Group, the demand for new office space in Prague remains strong despite a slowdown in new office developments. He noted that 636,700 square meters of office space transactions were recorded in 2024, exceeding the 10-year average of under 500,000 square meters. Given this trend, companies considering relocation or new offices in the city are encouraged to explore leasing opportunities at Hila before completion.
Designed with a focus on sustainability and efficiency, the building incorporates air ionization technology, enhanced fresh air supply, and radiant ceiling heating and cooling to optimize indoor comfort while reducing energy consumption. The project aligns with Passerinvest’s ESG strategy, prioritizing employee well-being and environmental responsibility. The development also features terraces for relaxation, both shared and private, as well as access to Balance Club Brumlovka, a fitness and wellness center. Underground garages will offer 418 parking spaces, including charging stations for electric vehicles. Hila is targeting LEED Gold certification for sustainability.
Architect Jan Aulík of Aulík Fišer architects, the studio behind the project, highlighted the challenge of integrating offices, retail, and residential spaces in a vertical layout. Unlike previous developments in Brumlovka, Hila combines multiple functions within a single structure, aiming to create an active and dynamic urban environment.
Passerinvest Group continues to develop Brumlovka as a business and residential district, and Hila represents a new step in this transformation. The project is expected to contribute to the evolving landscape of Prague’s commercial and residential real estate market.
