Transforming Urban Density: Puzzle System Starke 3127 at Vrabnitsa Residence, Sofia

In the heart of Sofia's evolving Vrabnitsa district, where modern living meets space constraints, Vrabnitsa Residence stands as a beacon of innovative urban planning. This multi-apartment complex recently underwent a parking revolution, expanding its capacity from a mere 4 surface-level spots to 11 independent parking spaces — all within the same footprint.

Powered by Mutrade's 3-level puzzle parking system with pit Starke 3127, the project seamlessly integrates one underground level with two above-ground levels. This clever configuration not only triples efficiency but preserves the exterior's aesthetic appeal and enhances convinience.

PROJECT INFORMATION

Project: APARTMENT BUILDING PARKING

Product: STARKE 3127

Load capacity: 2700KG PER PARKING SPACE

THE CHALLENGE

Maximizing Limited Space in a Residential Hub

Vrabnitsa Residence, a contemporary mid-rise development, faced a common urban dilemma: growing resident demand for secure, convenient parking amid restricted land availability. Traditional surface lots occupied valuable real estate, limiting amenities like gardens or playgrounds. Excavation for a full underground garage risked high costs and disruption. The solution needed to be convenient, cost-effective, and compliant with Bulgaria's stringent building codes  — delivering independent access (no vehicle shuffling) while minimizing visual impact.

Enter Mutrade's Starke 3127, a hydraulic puzzle system renowned for its robustness and flexibility. Designed for independent parking, this model features sliding platforms on multiple levels, enabling horizontal and vertical movement with precision. Each unit supports up to 2,700 kg, accommodating everything from compact sedans to family SUVs. The system's galvanized steel frames and anti-corrosion coatings ensure durability in Sofia's variable climate, while CE certification guarantees safety and reliability.
