Superatová, Alena ; Navrátil, Václav (referee) ; Havliš, Karel (advisor)
Subject of this thesis is an urban and architectural design of buildings vacant lot at the corner intersection of streets Brabansko - A small splint near the city center of Přerov. Apartment Building Front Street closes and completes residential block. Corner is cantilevered, giving rise to leeward before. There are shops, facilities of the apartment building and garage. Above the shops are perched three floors forward of mass housing with 15 apartments. The analysis of the city has shown that in Prerov is not a retirement home and no day care. So I decided to tackle this problem. The rear wing of the house serves as a single health center. It has its own entrance, its core communications and access from the garage. Its components except surgeries and rehabilitation is the seat of nursing services. Its main role would be serving the elders who live in their homes. Nurses would be goung out for them, helping with housework, taking clothes to laundry, etc. These care services are already operating in other cities and enjoying great popularity. Residential house is inside the health center connected. Given the proximity care services are particularly suitable housing for the elders. Therefore, the flats designed to lay with disabilities. All apartments are with 2 bedrooms for one or two people. Each dwelling unit has a spacious balcony overlooking the waterfront.

The aim of the project is to open the area to people and incorporate it into the daily life of citizens Rousínov. Cinema, restaurants, galleries, clubs and housing - it's all part of the new city center. Already incurred background builds housing for the elderly, which is its location in the heart of a quality place for the next stage of life. By activating these functions is an isolated island in the city center becomes a full-fledged part of the public space Rousínov. The first stage is the conversion of schools to the cultural and community center. Slogan conversion is cleansing. Clean up objects from unnecessary structures and layers of history. Show support structure and inject new energy into the buildings. The construction itself enables spatial play of vertical and horizontal surfaces. Space clubrooms and galleries are open to the second floor, housing units are designed as maisonettes. Everything is simple and functional. It remains only the pace of life, which objects to bring residents Rousínov. As a next stage will be created in the area of housing for seniors. Demand for housing for the elderly is still high and it's no different in Rousínov and surroundings. In the House of care service that is not on the edge and the capacity is insufficient. Therefore, the potential use of school premises in the town center is a suitable solution for senior housing. The proposal does not find one universal solution for all, but aims to promote the uniqueness and future residents based on their individual needs. Therefore, there is no one big complex retirement home, but three different objects according to the degree of autonomy of the population.

Senior citizens home Sokolnice
Vávra, Vít ; Šindlar, Jiljí (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The area of the former barracks lies near Sokolnice falling into the periphery of Brno. It is a picturesque village that has a rich history. The barracks are located on a hill called Stará hora, there are several cadastral areas. Near the building, we can find a radar that manages the nearby Brno airport, or the Peace Mound built on the Prateck Hill, soldiers fall to remembrance. The design principle was based on the given operation and its related functions. Dining room, rehabilitation, barber, pedicure, buffet and, last but not least, a multifunctional hall with a small library. The destruction of the unnecessary transformer station and the replenishment of the mass was a logical solution to the situation. It is an assembled reinforced concrete frame 8x8m. Inside the half-block we find a terrace with a pool, which is trying to create a specific microclimate and humidify the surroundings. The pool also serves as a retention tank and the house effectively manages rainwater. Within the lifetime, because of the corrosion of reinforced concrete and the unclear condition of the structure, I designed the exterior cladding to demolish and build a new cladding, a brick made of ceramic blocks. The house is designed in a minimalist spirit and cooperates with the greenery in its surroundings. Especially in long-distance views of integration into the landscape, this greenery is valued. The spirit of place in heavy air bears a strange whiff of dragging death that, when thinking about the history of a place, froze and freezes ... so perhaps while resting before the last journey ... that house discourages and breathes a little life into dying ...

This thesis focuses on informal care and the burden of informal care. The aim is to explore the current form of informal care and to reflect on it with existing knowledge. In its first part, the thesis focuses on a description of the demographic development of the seniors, a description of informal care and the problems associated with it, solidarity, caregiving burden, and the possibilities of assistance and support for informal caregivers. Furthermore, the thesis sets out to describe what assistive technologies are, how informal carers use them and how they relieve them of the caring burden. Peripherally, the thesis also touches on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the caregiving burden. Through quantitative measurement using my own modification of the ZBI-4 questionnaire, I describe caregiving burden, taking into account basic sociodemographic data. The results show no statistically significant differences either across genders or across generations, apart from a significantly lower perceived caregiving burden for Generation X. I follow the quantitative part of the research with the qualitative part, based on semi-structured interviews. In the qualitative part, I describe the reasons for the decision for informal caregiving, its form and consequences, potential generational differences,...
