| Czech Self-sufficient House || Kyselov, Southern Bohemian Region)/Czechia || Flood || Energy, Water, Structure || This house integrates an energy-efficient design, use of renewable energy sources, water conservation strategies, and a green roof for temperature regulation - it is an off-grid house, i.e. without connection to water, electricity or sewage netowrks. It focuses on sustainable solutions like rainwater harvesting, energy-saving technologies, and promoting biodiversity through landscape greenery. The building's design minimizes environmental impact while enhancing resilience to climate hazards like heat waves and droughts.  || [https://www.lifetreecheck.eu/en/Databaze/2022/Cesky-sobestacny-dum LIFE Tree Check database]

|House with a wetland roof || Prague/Czechia || Flood || Energy, Water, Structure || This house integrates nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation. The innovative wetland roof helps with water retention and biodiversity enhancement, while the root wastewater treatment system promotes ecological wastewater management. These features contribute to climate resilience by managing stormwater, reducing flooding risks, and improving air quality. The building's design also incorporates energy-efficient technologies and sustainable materials to minimize its environmental impact.  || [https://www.lifetreecheck.eu/en/Databaze/2019/Dum-s-mokradni-strechou-korenovou-cistirnou LIFE Tree Check database]

| Flood-resistant building (close to Berounka river) || Řevnice (a town in Prague-West District in the Central Bohemian Region)/Czechia || Flood || Energy, Water, Structure || This family house incorporates several flood-resistant features to enhance its resilience against potential flooding. It is elevated above ground level, which helps prevent water from entering during floods. The design utilizes water-resistant materials that are better suited to withstand flood conditions. Additionally, effective drainage systems are integrated into the property to manage excess water and minimize flood risk. The surrounding landscaping is also designed to direct water away from the house, further contributing to its flood resilience. Together, these features ensure safety and protection for the residents in the event of flooding.  || [https://www.uceeb.cz/en/green-roofs-and-facades/ MagazinAktualne.cz]

| Use of Nature-based Solutions at CTU UCEEB Building || Buštěhrad/Czechia ||  Heatwave and warming trend || Energy || CTU UCEEB received an honourable mention for its experimental roof featuring 24 test areas. Long-term testing of various green roofs is underway, assessing factors such as functionality, maintenance, and composition. The building also participates in the City Lab for the Horizon project, part of the [https://nbsinfra.eu/ NBSINFRA Horizon project, 2023-2026], focused on enhancing urban infrastructure resilience against risks through nature-based solutions. A new green roof test area is also exploring the use of biochar from sewage slack as a substrate. || [https://magazin.aktualne.cz/dum-v-revnicich-u-prahy-navrhli-architekti-z-0-5-studia/r~501c1f00824211ef80bfac1f6b220ee8/r~b0053732824011efb689ac1f6b220ee8/ CTU UCEEB website]

| Revitalization of the Českobrodská School || Prague/Czechia || Heatwave and warming trend || Energy || Passive, carbon positive, sparingly handling both drinking water and rainwater, smart, convenient and comfortable to the extent that half an hour before classes begin, everything is set up in the classrooms so that the students are not hot, cold, the sun does not shine on them too much, and they have a supply of fresh air. Only the supporting structure remained from the school building before the renovation. Extensive green roofs and photovoltaic panels are installed on the roof. || [https://www.adapterraawards.cz/cs/Revitalizace-skoly-Ceskobrodska-Praha AdapterraAwards.cz]

| Revitalization of the House for Children and Youth School ||  Český Krumlov/Czechia || Heatwave and warming trend || Energy || The aim of the refurbishment was to find a solution that would be in line with the requirements of preservation of monuments in the historic environment, but which would also allow to increase the building technical quality and lead to energy savings. In cooperation with the conservationists, a contact insulation system made of mineral wool was designed, which respects the original articulation and profile of the facades. The requirement was to carry out the final finishing touches of plastering work in a manner that preserved the authentic character. It was not possible to use a conventional external thermal insulation system because it would not statically support the decorative stucco elements on the façade.  || [https://adaptacepraha.cz/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/EDUadapt_Metodika_full-text_12_EN_2022_04_27.pdf Methodology for adaptation of school buildings to climate change in Prague [PDF]]
