The book The Ďáblice Housing Estate: Architecture for the People is dedicated to one of the most successful housing estates in the Czech Republic, lying in the northern section of Prague near the hill of Ládví and the Ďáblice Forest.
The Ďáblice estate is marked by a truly outstanding urban plan for the entire complex, combining a diverse composition of several distinct types of housing blocks with sensitively integrated structures for public services. Moreover, an independently significant component of the urban conception is provided by the landscape design for the entire complex, dominated by the elongated central park, and the use of objects of public artwork. Ďáblice forms part of the broader construction project known as “North Town” (Severní Město), consisting of the urban complexes of Bohnice, Kobylisy, Ďáblice and Prosek.
