SOHO 18 will consist of 131 flats of different sizes, ranging from 30 sq. m. studio apartments to 4-bedroom units spanning over 100 sq. m. SOHO by Yareal will be situated on brownfield land in the Kamionek neighborhood in Warsaw’s Praga Południe district, at the corner of Żupnicza and Chodakowska Streets. This project is a vital element of a wider regeneration scheme for this part of the city.more...

Built as a stepped structure, the nine-story SOHO 18 residential building is the first to be developed as part of the SOHO by Yareal project. Built in a type-C layout, SOHO 18 will offer 131 flats, with living areas ranging from 29 to 109 sq. m. as well as space for commercial units in the building’s arcades. A lobby with a reception area will be situated on building’s ground floor, and the site itself will also include a two-story car park.

This modernist investment, which combines post-industrial elements with modern design, will seamlessly blend in with the surrounding historic buildings located throughout the Kamionek neighborhood. As per SOHO 18’s architectural plan, which was drafted by the prestigious Hermanowicz Rewski Architekci studio, the building will be constructed using such materials as concrete and Corten steel – inspiration drawn directly from the industrial character of the project’s surroundings.

SOHO 18 is yet another project developed by Yareal on the east bank of the Vistula river. Flats in Kamionek are in great demand, with as many as 15% pre-orders being placed within just two weeks of pre-sales being announced. The SOHO by Yareal project’s first residential building is to be completed by the end of 2021.

An attractive neighborhood

Located in Warsaw’s diverse and lively Praga district, SOHO 18 will become an ideal place for people looking for just the right balance between living a metropolitan lifestyle and being close to nature. All thanks to the nearby greenery, including Warsaw’s second-largest park, Skaryszewski Park, as well as the district’s numerous local workshops, art galleries and restaurants. In addition to being situated in an attractive neighborhood, another strong point of the SOHO by Yareal investment will be its location – a mere 5 km from Warsaw’s city center. Yareal’s latest project will be situated by several bus and tram stops, providing convenient and quick access to central Warsaw. Moreover, it will also be located in the vicinity of the Warszawa Wschodnia railway station as well as M2 Metro stations.

“SOHO by Yareal is definitely a unique project, complementing and regenerating historic landmarks with modern and functional architecture. By creating SOHO by Yareal, we wanted to keep the idea and spirit of Soho Factory alive. By weaving a new, attractive element into the district’s urban fabric, we want to enrich this part of the neighborhood by offering real benefits to both the current and future residents of Kamionek” – says Eric Dapoigny, CEO Yareal Polska.

Metropolitan lifestyle

SOHO by Yareal, a unique architectural concept spanning over 5 hectares, will blend into the existing buildings at Mińska Street, the modern residential houses which have been built there over the last few years, as well as the district’s historic brownfield land. The core inspiration for this project’s architects as well as its developer was to create something more than just another housing estate. By introducing a wide variety of retail outlets and services, enriched by recreational and cultural facilities, SOHO will become a place run by its own dynamics, and will have a meaningful impact on the evolving character of this part of the district. Further stages of the SOHO project will be developed successively as the design and administrative works progress. Visiting the sales office located in one of the old factory buildings at Mińska 25 Street, you can already feel the spirit of SOHO by Yareal.

All apartments, both in SOHO 18 and in the entire SOHO by Yareal complex, will be equipped with the very latest smart home solutions. The design process involved one of the world’s most advanced wireless smart home systems provided by the industry-leading company FIBARO. Among a variety of functions, SOHO 18 residents will be able to remotely manage their heating, as well as have full control over the power supply to their household appliances.

SOHO 18 was designed by Yareal in line with the company’s philosophy of sustainable building and maintaining a respectful approach to the environment and the use of natural resources. The project is subject to advanced certification against the BREEAM scheme, confirming its compliance with the highest standards of quality and the adoption of green construction solutions. The SOHO 18 building site will be supplied with power from renewable energy sources.

SOHO by Yareal will be the first residential project in Poland to undergo the BREEAM Communities certification process. This is an international certification system used to improve, measure and evaluate the economic, social and environmental aspects of sustainable building. The system integrates sustainable design with urban planning. In the BREEAM Communities system, the environmental impact assessment methodology is expanded to represent a more holistic approach to sustainable design, taking into account the project’s social and economic impact on its neighborhood. Findings of conducted studies and analyses are then implemented into the project’s functional specifications.
