Dancing House

The Dancing House is a modern building on the banks of the Vltava, designed by Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunić in the 1990s.

Its dynamic form resembles a dancing couple, which earned it the nickname “Fred and Ginger”.

The building is one of the most recognisable examples of contemporary architecture in Prague.

Satori Cities

On a Satori Cities walk, Dancing House is not treated as a box to tick. It is a place to notice texture, proportion, and the moment before explanation, to slow the body down, and to receive the historical context only after perception has done its work.
