Located in Prague's New Town, the Obchodní dům Olympic is a functionalist commercial building designed by architect Jaromír Krejcar and completed in 1927. As a cultural monument of the Czech Republic, it exemplifies the modernist aesthetic that Krejcar championed during the interwar period, when functionalism was reshaping Czech architecture. The building's design reflects the era's embrace of clean lines, rational spatial organization, and the integration of commercial purpose with contemporary design principles.
