Philosophy of the company
For us, development means a commitment to current users and future generations.
We are aware of our responsibility and, therefore, we emphasize a quality and functional design, we respect the needs of our clients and we regard the relevant place and its history.
The opinions of our partners are welcome, because only due to the dialogue, cooperation and connection of the best thoughts we can construct the timeless buildings with a high usable value.
We choose the building site carefully and responsibly and we always seek to set the building sensitively into the landscape. With respect, we build on what the nature and the people before us have created. We always create the environment-friendly architecture.
BIM in Metrostav Development
BIM, i.e. Building Information Modelling is a process of creating and administering data regarding the given building throughout its entire life cycle.
This is an open database of information concerning the building thanks to which all entities participating in the building project cycle have the same BIM database, not only for their own activities, but also for communication with other entities. BIM is a database, which contains comprehensive information regarding the building project. This database is unique, unparalleled, and up-to-date. Building Information Modelling is a modern and intelligent process, which enables easier information exchange within the frame of the process of building design, construction, and use. Upon designing buildings, the BIM simulates actual construction process, whereby securing maximum design quality without space or co-ordination errors. From the very beginning of the project, it is thus possible to use „virtual reality“ – a building’s 3D model.
We used the BIM Method on the Palmovka Open Park commercial project.
