NetZero – carbon neutral living in Brno
Osipova, Valentina ; Gebauer, Pavel (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the design of student housing in the Brno – Západní brána location. The two residential buildings are designed in the concept of carbon neutrality - Net Zero - throughout their life cycle. In order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to take into account, on the one side, operational carbon, which arises during the actual use of the building and is mainly related to energy consumption during the building's operation, and, on the other side, embodied carbon, which enters the structure before the building is started to be used. The only material reducing the overall carbon footprint is wood, and for that reason Net Zero is difficult to achieve without considering the use of wood as a construction material. Zeroing the carbon footprint in the entire life cycle is only achievable if both of the above principles are followed. The main delaying factor on the way to carbon neutrality for the Czech Republic are the currently valid legislative requirements, especially in the field of fire safety, which do not allow the construction of wooden buildings higher than 12 m fire height. The newly prepared legislation, expected to take effect from mid-2025, should push this limit up to 22.5 m, i.e. to approx. 7 floors. For this reason, the project envisages a wooden supporting structure. The proposal is based on the studio work from the previous semester, where a new urban structure West. Vista. View was designed at Jihlavská street west of the Západní brána tram stop. The overall concept of the urban study takes into account the principles of Net Zero in urban planning, which are a city of short distances, density, orientation to the cardinal points, reduction of car traffic and creating a favorable microclimate. The proposed buildings are six-story residential buildings, where the ground floor houses common student spaces (coworking) and rentable spaces for other services. On the second to fifth above-ground floors, there are maisonette apartments, and on the upper sixth floor – single-floor mini-apartments of a higher standard. The underground floor is dedicated mainly to technical operations. One of the buildings is dealt with in more detailed way as a main theme of the diploma project. It is a corner building located on the local square.

Restoration of the baroque rectory in Sebranice
Osipova, Valentina ; Špiller, Martin (referee) ; Guzdek, Adam (advisor) ; Daněk, Lukáš (advisor)
The subject of this work is the restoration of the baroque rectory in Sebranice near Boskovice. The site is located in the center of the village and has good transport links due to the location on the main street of this village. The solved object is a two-storey building with a rectangular floor plan. The rectory building dates from the 18th century and is listed as an immovable cultural monument, which influences the methods of its restoration. The aim of the work was to prepare documentation for the building permit and part of the documentation for the construction on the basis of a previously prepared architectural study. During the renovation, the rectory was converted into a puppet museum at the request of the owners. Part of the building is dedicated to the short-term accommodation of the owners and a caretaker's apartment was also designed on the 1st floor. The arrangement of the outdoor space allows the use of the building for social purposes. In my proposal, i tried to be gentle and keep the rectory in the most authentic form. Demolition work and construction interventions were minimized. On the contrary, the original elements or their replicas were restored. An important point of the concept was to support the unique spirit of the place – genius loci. The different appearance of the south facade was enhanced by the use of a different color of plaster. This facade was not historically representative and in my design it is also part of a private space. Its different appearance helps to create two spaces with different functions - a representative public park and a private orchard.
