Brutalist Czech bus terminal restored by Chybik + Kristof

Words by Francesca Perry In the Czech city of Brno, Chybik + Kristof Architects has restored and redesigned the Zvonarka Central Bus Terminal, a brutalist concrete and steel structure originally built in 1988. The project involved vital repairs of the bus station, which had been in a state of neglect and deterioration. Noticing its condition, the architects decided in 2011 that they wanted to save the building from degradation and reached out to the owners with a redesign proposal; funding for the project was eventually secured in 2015. ‘Demolitions are a global issue,’ explains practice co-founder Michal Kristof. ‘Our role as architects is to engage in these conversations and demonstrate that we no longer operate from a blank page. We need to consider and also work from existing architecture – and gradually shift the conversation from creation to transformation.’
