To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Slouková, Hana ; Palaščák, Michal (referee) ; Foretník, Jan (advisor)
The new transfer terminal in the former royal town of Dvůr Králové nad Labem brings together and connects public transport with individual. The main objective of the proposal is the functional merger of public bus and suburban bus services, pedestrians and the introduction of train connections on the existing siding. At present the town is mainly associated with the ZOO Dvůr Králové and is perceived more as "Dvůr by ZOO" then city itself with history. As a result of popularity of ZOO city loses a substantial part of the tourists. Concept of design is based on lines that lead or guide the passenger to the given points of interest in the city, but the primary remains a clear open space with direct links to the surroundings - the city. The proposal focuses on passenger comfort and easy orientation in space in response to the anticipated development of the structure and infrastructure of the city with the restoration of its identity.

Kobyliaková, Tatiana ; Františák, Luboš (referee) ; Foretník, Jan (advisor)
The concept is based on the location of the transport terminal between the bus and train platforms, serving as a portal, gateway to the city or out of the city. It is the place where hundreds of people pass, its character is constantly changing. This dynamics of a small city is also reflected in the shape of the building and the roofing of the platforms. The longitudinal axis of the terminal direction naturally follows a path pointing to the city center.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Juránek, Marek ; Svojanovský, Viktor (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (advisor)
The terminal is becoming a heart of traffic in Dvur Kralove nad Labem. Linking of train and bus transport is inspired by a shape of a “courtyard” - open space, that is surrounded by buildings. This is a stage where acts of transportation, meetings, happiness and worries take place every day. Space has been designed so people don’t only use it for a purpose of transport, but also to enjoy moments of free time. The appearance gives a futuristic impression, however respects city’s history and tries to enrich its surroundings, so it doesn’t become just another place where people like to spend their time. Although trains and buses enter terminal from 21st century, design respects also its history as well as surroundings and use a form and function to promote them. “courtyard” terminal is a place for meetings and goodbyes, where a time flows and journey to adventure begins.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Turčanová, Terézia ; Vrbka, Jan (referee) ; Ponešová, Barbora (advisor)
The task of this Bachelor thesis is to create an architectural and urban design of the transfer terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem. Therefore in my proposal, I design and integrate the transfer point into an existing built – up area, so it meets the demands of the 21st century passengers, encourages visitors to explore the city and meets daily needs and activities of the local community. Train and bus terminal together with various other services are combined under one roof to create a meeting place. The center of the area is an elevated glazed terminal hall that covers and connects various functions in the separate blocks within it. A distinctive unifying element of the entire terminal is the overlapping roof in the space around the hall and over platforms. The shape of pillars under the roof refers to the character of the industrial zone located nearby and the "lace-shaped" crossing of the ribs under the ceiling creates a specific atmosphere. The shelter over bus stops corresponds with the roof. Simultaneously it fills the interrupted street line on the Ulica 28. rijna street. The project of the area together with its surroundings also includes places for park greenery as well as for living that complement the missing public spaces in this part of town. The scale of objects is chosen with regard to the character of the site and its importance and location within the city, which has about 16 000 inhabitants.

Brno New Train Station and its Public Spaces
Nytrová, Bohdana ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
For almost one hundred years, Brno has been deciding where the place of a new main train station should be. The works have almost started several times, but the various affairs have always postponed it. Two years ago, it was finally decided that „the River option“ would be constructed. So far, only the technological template has been written – e. g. railway bridge or platforms outline. The thesis focuses on the architectural design of the main building, the roof construction above the railways and spaces below the station bridge. In the design, the outlying urban structures are also dealt with. These include the locations of a bus station, taxi services and bike stands. Moreover, the design also mentions the station’s connection to the city networks. The main motive of the design is to put the main train station building into the centre of the city’s attractions – to make it visible. A boulevard’s view is oriented to the St. Peter’s cathedral – a famous Brno’s building. Just as the mentioned cathedral, the station is important for the city and deserves to be seen. A strong arched construction on four pillars serves as a roof over the railways and places where most visitors are expected to be most of the time. The arch also connects the public transport lines and the bus station. Part of a roof shaped like waves around the main hall connects the structure with the riverside nearby.
