Improving Urban Ecosystems by Increasing the Number of Vegetated Roofs
Sukopová, Dagmar
Urban ecosystems are often characterised by a lack of greenery. This results in a deteriorating environment for citizens, but also in the extinction of many animal and plant species. One solution that is being offered is to gradually increase the areas covered by vegetation, especially on buildings that are often otherwise unused.
The article analyses the possibilities of using all possible green areas with practical examples.

Garden city
Sukopová, Dagmar ; Skoumal, Jan (referee) ; Toman, Radek (advisor)
Housing should not focus solely on habitation function. It must also includes relations to surroundings and environment we live in. The place, which surrounds us has a crucial impact on our feelings and perceptions. It is scientifically proven that plants positively affect our senses. The presence of vegetation is perceived as one of the main indicators of housing quality, which has a major influence on our choice of dwelling. My bachelor's thesis is based on urban studies, which has been developed by assocation Ivan Koleček - Pavel Jura architects Luasanne - Brno. The large free spaces are creating possibility for a new urban structure, of which one designed part is the garden city. Here is fulfilled idea of connection between natural elements and historical urban core.

The Permaculture and the City
Sukopová, Dagmar ; Utíkalová, Ivana (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
In my diploma thesis, I wanted to outline the possibilities of gradual revitalization of our cities in the spirit of permaculture and at the same time support food self-sufficiency by designing fruit parks, community and roof gardens for commercial and non-commercial use. The work deals with the idea of integrating agriculture into the urban environment in local conditions. The application of urban agriculture, especially in Western countries, is already quite common. The work should serve as a guide to creating a more sustainable urban environment.
