Editorial

Of martens and mechanics

The summer is obviously a great time to get away, but as always, I urge you not to visit the Bieszczady mountains in south-eastern Poland, which even without you going there already has too many tourists and quite a few animals to boot.

Tomasz Cudowski, editor-in-chief
Small talk

One of a kind

One United Properties has made a name for itself through the revitalisation of brownfield sites in Romania. Victor Căpitanu, the co-founder and co-CEO of the company, tells us about its unique approach to creating real estate that makes a real difference

Small talk

Mind over matters

We spoke to Julia Racewicz, the head of asset management, office and logistics of asset manager Savills Investment Management Poland, about how landlords are responding to the changing attitudes of office and warehouse tenants

Small talk

Small is beautiful – and green too!

We spoke to Magdalena Morelewska and Anna Wojcieszek, the owners of the Morelewska Wojcieszek Architektki design studio, about the sustainable construction concept and the latest environmentally friendly approaches to the design of private residences

Feature

Building a better place

The award-winning general director of the Polish branch of Belgian construction group CFE gives us his exclusive insights into how the sector has changed over the last few decades – and why it’s much more important to focus on people and the environment they work and live in rather than being the biggest fish in the pond

Nathan North
Office & mixed-use development

Magda Rachwald
Hotels

Hospitably green

While other parts of the real estate market have embraced the sustainability revolution, is the hospitality sector also fully onboard with ESG?

Ports in a storm of investment

I want to ride my bicycle!

For the eighth time, more than 100 people took to Warsaw’s cycle lanes to help popularise the most environmentally friendly means of transport – the push bike

Endpiece

The kids are alright… I think

My baby sister is buying herself a house. (Maybe I should stop calling her that because she’s now 34, but I’m still 20 years her senior.) I think she’s crazy because she’s going to live out in the sticks with her baby, but neither she nor her husband have a driving licence
