Papilonia Teplice

Complete interior design and creation.

The Papilonia Teplice project was the fourth butterfly house we have built in the Czech Republic.

At the same time a very unique and interesting challenge.
We were involved in this project from the very beginning and provided a comprehensive solution – from the architectural design of the flight zone and reception to the complete interior design including production.

Together with a team of building architects, we first created a floor plan of the space.

Then began to address the implementation of the interior in detail with regard to various technologies, such as HVAC, ESS, electrical installations, lighting and more. We started the project in early January and it was handed over to the client in October, which was the result of our careful planning and coordination.

Initial study of the interior solution

For this project, together with the client, we decided on the theme of “Paleontological Site”,

which we subsequently transferred to 3D in the form of visualizations. During the preparations, we discussed nine different versions of the interior. Although we ultimately decided on the final variant, it was necessary to adapt it to the conditions of the shopping center, especially in the area of ​​HVAC and other technical solutions during construction.

One of the key elements of the interior was a nature trail with replicas of dinosaur fossils

We designed  the trail to make the most of the small space of 94 m². Despite this, we managed to create a space that feels airy and at the same time offers visitors a rich experience.

Airy and authentic interior

The entire interior of the butterfly house was designed with very strict conditions in mind:

decorations and materials had to meet demanding requirements regarding butterfly safety, resistance to 85% humidity and artificial sunlight. All decorations had to be highly durable to withstand the daily stress of tens of thousands of visitors per year.

Throughout the entire process, we were available to the client not only for interior design, but also in negotiations with the construction company, professionals and the building architect to ensure that every detail would fit perfectly into the overall concept and meet all technical and aesthetic requirements.

This project is further proof for us that even in a small space, you can create a great experience while respecting the specific requirements that such a realization requires.
