Kunsthalle Praha revives the former Zenger Transformation Station in the historic centre of Prague. Accessible to a broad public. The guidance system leads visitors next to the design shop, bistro, café, through three large gallery spaces. Most of the building was gutted and rebuilt. However, parts of the existing building were also left in place, creating an exciting spatial experience with many intermediate levels, views and exits for the visitors. A complex task.

The arrow, derived from the logo, not only points the way but also summarises the individual goals. The typeface drawn by Pistora is based on a template by Tschichold. The derived pictograms, letters and arrow are made of burnished iron and applied to the rough concrete. The contrast of these materials, the pure of the application and the lightness of the arrangement create a visual appeal that unfolds in the interior, yet recedes in favour of the art.
