Restoration of the monastery in Šternberk
Wernerová, Valerie ; Kocourek, Tomáš (referee) ; Guzdek, Adam (advisor)
The subject of the thesis was to create an architectural study of the revitalization of part of the building of the former Augustinian monastery in Šternberk, including its surroundings and garden. It was essential to find a new functional use of neglected spaces and determine the overall concept of the object's functioning. The building of the former monastery is to serve as a place for rest, cultural development and relaxation in a demanding era. It is functionally divided into two parts that intertwine. Firstly, it is a part intended primarily for the local population, for concerts, theaters, cultural days, social events... that is, for social and cultural enjoyment. The second part is aimed at people looking for a change of environment, relaxation in a pleasant space with high-quality facilities and recharging new energy. Within the monastery, pleasant accommodation has been created with spaces for rest, sports, relaxation, but also remote work. Both functions complement each other, the space of the restaurant, cafe or beer hall serve both residents and staying guests. The small wellness centre is also open to those interested from Šternberk as well as a gym, an open library or a beautifully landscaped garden that encourages relaxation for both locals and guests. A significant input into the architecture is the arrangement of the inner courtyard. Roofing of the courtyard, which is open today, is proposed. At the same time, a new staircase and an elevator are added in the courtyard. In the monastery grounds, it is possible to pass from east to west through the accessible monastery garden, in which parts of the English park intertwine with the baroque garden. In the south-western part, a underground garage is being built, hidden under green roof connected to the garden.

Townhouse
Baková, Erika ; Smola, Jaroslav (referee) ; Ležatka, Lukáš (advisor)
This master's thesis focuses on a complex architectural and urban design of a multifunctional urban block in the historic center of Brno at the level of architectural study. The project aims to harmoniously integrate new buildings into the historical context of the city and respect the surrounding urban fabric. The proposal addresses the completion of an existing urban block and the creation of a new urban block between Veveří and Kounicova streets, thus creating a new Závodní street. The design preserves a memorial tree as a key element of the public space; the facade of the building steps away from it, creating a public space of a piazzetta with the memorial tree as the focal point. As part of the blue-green infrastructure, new greenery is integrated into the streets, and buildings with flat roofs have vegetated roofs with photovoltaic panels designed. The architectural solution includes two underground floors for parking, a ground floor with an active commercial ground floor with shops and a supermarket, and five above-ground floors with residential units. The last above-ground floor is set back from the rest. The urban design focuses on slowing down busy traffic and puts pedestrians in a dominant position. The architectural design respects the character of the area and combines traditional forms with a modern appearance. The structural solution of the building combines a reinforced concrete skelet system with a ceramic wall system. The project exploits the potential of land use and brings up to 399 new residential units ranging from 1+kk to 4+kk, with higher standard apartments on the last setback above-ground floor.

Rohatec Special Regime Home
Velazquez Hernandezová, Natalie ; Klement, Miloš (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor)
The subject of this master's thesis is a study of the construction of a special regime home in Rohatec. The aim was to create a proposal for a healthcare facility for institutional care supplemented by support services. The care home is designed to accommodate 90 clients and two shifts of fifty staff members each. The site under consideration is located on the outskirts of the village of Rohatec within the residential area of family houses. The site consists of three parcels (38/3; 38/5; 37/3) owned by the region and one parcel (40/2) owned by the Czech Republic's Forests. Parcel 37/3 currently contains a family house, which will be demolished. Parcel 38/3 contains a regulatory gas station, which will be relocated off-site for the purpose of the new construction, while ensuring public access. The forest protection zone of 50 meters will be exceptionally reduced to 0 meters with the consent of the Forests of the Czech Republic to enable construction on the site. The proposed building is in compliance with the zoning plan. The proposed new construction is a standalone, basement building that respects and also concludes the street line of family houses. The building has three above-ground floors and one underground floor. The main entrance to the main building is oriented from the northwest at the level of the ground floor from Nové řádky Street. The main entrance to the garages is oriented from the southwest at the level of the basement floor from Cihelny Street. The main exit from the collective garages is on the northeast facade of the building at the level of the basement floor leading to Nové řádky Street. The maximum height of the main building is +15,500 meters (object access to the elevator). Parking is mostly provided in the underground garage of the building. Another 13 public parking spaces are located along the road on Nové řádky Street. Two of these spaces are reserved for disabled and rapid admission or for ambulance access. Along the northeast boundary of the plot adjacent to the forest, there is a cascading garden with four height levels connected by gentle ramps with a slope of 1:20 and stairs. The first level directly connects to the ground floor level and serves as a social outdoor center with a pétanque court, tables for playing games, dining, resting benches, and flower beds with herbs and perennials. The second level consists of recreational stairs with space for various outdoor performances and a section with exercise machines for seniors. The third level is spiritual. There is a small meditation area here. The last level is consistent with the original terrain. It serves as a quick connection to the forest park and operational ramp from the garages. In the garden, there are two stepped ponds around the leveling ramps, which will cool the climate of all levels of the garden. Elevated flower beds with fragrant perennials or herbs and benches with a view of the forest permeate the entire garden.

Porta Coeli complex - new use of selected objects
Grünwald, Jakub ; Vostrejž, Dušan (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor)
The topic of the diploma thesis was to develop a proposal for the restoration of the Porta Coeli complex in the village of Předklášteří near Tišnov. It is the last functioning female Cistercian monastery in the Czech Republic. The area is currently undergoing gradual restoration under the management of Bernardium, s.r.o. and with the generous help of the Association of Volunteers for Porta Coeli. Slowly but surely, both religious and secular life is being restored to this important cultural and historical monument. The thesis focuses mainly on selected buildings that formerly served economic and industrial purposes. Some of these buildings have already been repaired and have found other uses. Others have been used either inappropriately or not at all and have been dilapidated for a long time. The Porta Coeli Monastery has its own distinctive Genius loci and should provide a unique spiritual and peaceful atmosphere for visitors who wish to spend time here and reect on themselves and the world around them. The focus of my work has become the westernmost part of the site, where I see great potential. This picturesque but somewhat forgotten place is dominated by a massive Baroque granary and the sheepfold building adjacent to it. The aim of my design is to nd a suitable functional use for these historic buildings and their surroundings that will meet the requirements of today and help breathe new life into this magical place. With the help of new architectural interventions that take into account the normative requirements of today's legislation, I am making the buildings accessible to the general public and at the same time pointing out the historical and architectural values that our ancestors left us. The second theme on which I have focused my attention is the southern part of the site. Here, on the basis of a conversation with the monastery administrator, I am proposing a new wood-chip incinerator. The input product will be biomass from the local timber industry, which the monastery is currently actively engaged in. The purpose of the new building is primarily to address the energy consumption of the existing and proposed buildings on the site.

Pisárky boating center
Filatova, Natalia ; Obrtlík, Jan (referee) ; Májek, Jan (advisor)
The topic of the bachelor's thesis is the design adaptation of the area of the former water treatment plant in the Pisárky district of Brno for the creation of a new building for a water sports center, utilizing existing structures of settling tanks, and adjacent areas to establish a water sports center. The center's design also aligns with studies for the modification of the Svratka River channel and the creation of a water canal. The architectural concept aims to connect the exterior with the interior. The mass solution is derived from several key points. Firstly, the site is bordered by Pisárecká Street to the south and Žabovřeská Street to the east, intersecting at an overpass of a multilevel interchange. This creates a noisy space, making it essential to establish a "barrier" to create a private and quiet area for relaxation with a view of the river and Pisárky Hill. The sports center building echoes the shape of the streets, with the highest point of the building located at the overpass, and the roof descending along both streets. On these two facades with minimal glass surfaces, the river-facing facades connect to the surrounding nature with glass elements. Secondly, it was necessary to respect the facilities for water sports enthusiasts, situated closest to the river for easy access. Therefore, the water sports center is located several meters lower than the sports center building and is embedded into the terrain along Žabovřeská Street. Additionally, a waterfront area along the river and canal will be designed, connected by descending sidewalks to Pisárecká and Žabovřeská Streets. The shape of the building and the waterfront respects the form of the river and the water canal. This center will serve members of the water sports club and residents of all age groups.

Commercial center Miris Garden in Croatia
Uherková, Jana ; Vintr, Jan (referee) ; Novák, Petr (advisor)
The subject of the bachelor thesis is the preparation of project documentation for building permits and documentation for construction implementation, based on the assignment provided in the 3rd year during the winter semester in the subject BGA 032 – Architectural Studio IV. The study focuses on the design of a new commercial center placed in the area of a newly planned holiday resort in Croatia. The addressed plot is located in the Croatian Dalmatia region, near the village of Stari Grad-Paklenica. Currently, the whole area is unused, undeveloped, and overgrown with wild vegetation. The architectural concept aims to create a building that responds to the sloping terrain of the plot and provides its future visitors with a sense and atmosphere of Croatian architecture. This is achieved through the use of stone cladding and wooden shading elements, which are typical materials for this region. The irregularly shaped building consists of two above-ground floors. The first floor is used for dining, commerce, and sports, while the second floor accommodates dining, services, administration, and entertainment. In contrast to the first floor, the second floor is more shallow, creating a walkable terrace from which individual units are accessible. The terrace also features outdoor seating for gastronomic establishments, complemented by wooden pergolas with sliding fabric shading. One of the dominant elements of the complex is the outdoor staircase connecting both floors. It is not only a guiding element but also reveals views of the sea and the setting sun. The design also emphasizes public spaces. In the front area of the commercial center on the northeast side, the space is divided into green islands with seating. These green islands, along with a water feature, complete the square in front of the commercial center facing the sea. The area also includes wooden pergolas with sliding fabric shading, resembling waves of the sea, providing a unique atmosphere.

Kalmykova, Valeriia ; Bažant, Lukáš (referee) ; Novák, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the design proposal for a new multifunctional building called "Malá Amerika" in Brno, based on an architectural study conducted within the course BGA021 - Architectural Design Studio 2 - Public Buildings. The aim of this thesis was to prepare project documentation comprising documentation for building permits, construction documentation, and architectural detail design. The proposed building is in Brno near the historical industrial structure "Malá Amerika" and the Titania buildings, within the area bounded by the streets Úzká and Nové sady. The multifunctional building "Malá Amerika" includes offices, art galleries, a library, a restaurant, cafes, rooftop terraces, and spaces for events. The new construction respects the existing urban and architectural structure of the surrounding development. It consists of five standalone buildings interconnected by an underground parking lot. The massing is composed of several blocks at different height levels connected by accessible terraces. Streets and squares with many interesting perspectives emerge between the individual buildings. The building is connected to "Malá Amerika" by an accessible terrace and designed not to obstruct the historical structure. Towards the Titania buildings, the volumes of the individual building components increase. The project's intention was to create a multifunctional building that would not only be an introverted structure benefiting solely from its perfect location and existing urban infrastructure but also feature ground floors full of commerce and services accessible to passersby even after working hours.
