Prodesi/Domesi

What Prodesi/Domesi does

Prodesi/Domesi is a Czech-Slovak integrated architecture and construction firm founded in 2002 by architects Pavel Horák and Václav Zahradníček, specializing exclusively in timber buildings. The company operates through two related legal entities — Prodesi s.r.o. for architectural design and Domesi s.r.o. for construction execution — with offices in Prague (headquarters) and Bratislava, and has completed over 250 projects across more than 23 years. Its three service lines are custom residential design-build, standardized type-house offerings (Domesi Concept Houses including the Freestyle model with ~100 units built and the energy-efficient Neo model), and public/commercial timber construction delivered via the domesiconstruction.cz B2B/B2G brand.

The firm's core technology rests on three timber structural systems: CLT (cross-laminated timber panels sourced from suppliers including Novatop and Stora Enso), KVH structural timber framing, and traditional log construction. Projects are designed digitally and fabricated via CNC machining for precision fit, and typically incorporate low-energy features including heat pumps, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (rekuperace), underfloor heating, and photovoltaic systems. Standardized house models (Freestyle, Neo) have been refined internally over 13+ years and can be customized to client, site, and regulatory requirements. Buildings are designed for energy efficiency and use carbon-storing renewable timber rather than conventional masonry.

The business model is project-based, one-time revenue per contract, with individually quoted pricing based on scope, location, and customization. Revenue streams include custom residential design-and-build (primary), standardized type-house sales, public/commercial timber construction (typically larger contract values), and ancillary short-term rental income from Domesi Concept House show homes. Go-to-market is direct, architect-led, and consultative: prospective clients engage through the website, free initial consultations, site visits, and open-house events (Dny otevřených domů P/D). The firm also owns the annual Salon dřevostaveb (Timber Construction Salon) at Prague's National Theatre, a 19+ year industry platform reinforcing category thought leadership. Customer segments span private homeowners (B2C, primary), Czech and Slovak municipalities (B2G), and commercial developers and investors (B2B).

2. Type-house sales (Freestyle and Neo models): Sale of proprietary standardized timber house models (Freestyle, Neo) with client customization options. Each model has a base configuration that can be adapted to site conditions, regulatory requirements, and client preferences. Revenue is project-based, one-time per contract.
3. Public and commercial timber construction: Design and construction of timber buildings for municipalities and commercial developers, including kindergartens, administrative buildings, and housing. Serviced via the B2B/B2G brand Domesi Construction (domesiconstruction.cz). Revenue is project-based, typically larger contract values than residential.
