The subrural catalogue
Malínková, Markéta ; Fabián, Ondřej (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The diploma project deals with the construction of the catalogue houses on the outskirts of villages. In addition to the term suburban, the term subrural is introduced, which describes and names this type of construction. At the same time, the project examines the influence of advertising catalogues on the aesthetics of subrural gardens and the activities performed on them. The work comes with a proposal for an alternative subrural locality in the village of Příkazy near Olomouc. Thanks to the minimization of plots, the labor is also minimized and at the same time space is freed for public orchard running through the entire territory. This creates a diffusion of development into the agricultural landscape and on a smaller scale it creates a spectacular space around private gardens. Prefabricated bricks from hobby markets form the architectural expression of the project. From these elements are assembled objects and fragments of fences located in the landscape. At the same time, the fragments form a newly compiled catalogue, according to which inhabitants build their fences.

Baths +
Valíček, Martin ; Štojdl, Václav (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The contemporary reduction of intimacy to instinctive sexuality, when the general availability of nudity causes decline of feelings such as desire for another person, and serves only as a mean to satisfy one's physical needs. Porn saturates the tension of current times. Attraction and yearning are not catalyzed by the sight of a naked body, but by a gesture, a move, or a subtle hint of unveiling the body and expressing the person's interest. That hint forms a fascination. A quick tease of imagination forces the inner tension to rise, relating to the fact that we are unaware of what is happening at the opposite side - in an inaccessible area. Our own nudity on top of that.

Space kitsch
Helešic, David ; Mitášová,, Monika (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
As a student of the final year of my master‘s programme I assume that I have been exposed to myriad perceptions throughout my studies, whether during lectures, compulsory practices or studio work, that have formed me as a student and future architect. Despite the fact I understand my study as an opportunity for personal development and university institution as a platform for „self-improvement“, the subsequent discursive formation cannot be avoided. Primarily, at my study begginings I have perceived theses, informations or solutions presented by teachers, as universal thruths. The lecturers rarely emphasize that their statements are possible interpretations, personal opinions, what means they are existing in certain philosophical or ideological framework. Over time one begins to doubt and relativize. As a critical introspection of „faculty-discourse“, which I have gone through my studies, I decided to question the concept of Space. The analysis I have done in my thesis confirms, that the Space is for the majority of teachers integral part of architect‘s work. The opinions which circulate around this concept penetrate to the students‘ thought apparatus throught teaching. Then they take them as an argumental arsenal for their own practice. To answer the question: „What is the Space?“, however is not the subject of this work. The work with the Space, which for many architects symbolize a boundary between „building“ and „Architecture“, is according to my analysis appearing as a controversial conception what an architect actually does. A clear definition of the architectural Space does not really exist and in this aspect by constant repetition of the term of the Space, we are exposing it to the risk of absolute emptying. The space in architectural theory and consequently in architectural discourse was invented relatively recently (1893).

Projective space
Štuříková, Blanka ; Zein, Lynda (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The design of the cemetery is based on the findings of the project Projective Space, which analyzes the memories of individuals of their spatial experiences that evoked emotions. Spatial collage as a method of creating an environment which, due to its ambiguity, allows individual interpretation by an individual person and evokes memories, is applied to the design of a cemetery for human composting. After the complete transformation of human remains into fertile land, the grave becomes useless. The dead lose their posthumous address. From a cultural point of view, however, the ritual of burial and the symbolic, mental value of the cemetery play an important role for the relatives in coping with the loss of their beloved. The design works with the culturally conditioned idea of the cemetery as an image of the world. With the disappearance of tombstones and urns, we abandon the concept of a cemetery - the city of the dead and reinterpret it as a cemetery - a landscape made of the dead. Remains in the form of fertile soil become material for modeling of the biodiverse terrain of the cultural landscape, a place that resonates with life.

Life in the isolation
Jankovichová, Ludmila ; Fabián, Ondřej (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The answer to what Zaježová is, can be simple. Zaježová are so called „lazy“. Zaježová is perceived by the outside world - society - primarily as an alternative community of people living in coexistence with nature, and “Zaježová” presents itself “in this way”. Personally, I think that Zaježová is defined mainly by the strong individualities of people who are able to say about themselves and present that they live in a community. Last but not least, Zaježová is a place where I spent a large part of my childhood, because my parents belonged to these strong individuals and decided to live life “alone”. My work tries to capture what Zaježová is through various media, including architecture. The output is a set of atypical tourist maps and a proposal to transform the former fire station into a gallery.

Sports Centre Brno - Luzanky
Kristek, Jan ; Foretníková, Ladislava (referee) ; Šindlar, Jiljí (advisor)
NEW FOOTBALL STADIUM FOR BRNO Have to be stadium inert, ingrown arena, which turns on its back to its context? The first idea of the concept was inspired by the impressions from the exhibition of Dutch photographer Hans van Meer. Common to all of his football photographs are sceneries of country-side or cities that serve as a background for amateur football matches. Football played in the open air just for the joy from the game and in the presence of astonishing scene appears almost poetic. Is it possible to transfer at least partly such poetic into a football stadium? Locality near to Lužánky is outstanding exactly because of its context. It is placed next to the center of Brno with possibility of the view at the panoramas of Petrov and castle Veveří. The idea to connect the fans´ impression of a game with genius loci of the city, where the match takes place, strongly influenced the conceptual solution to the stadium. It enables fans to watch football game not only in the atmosphere of the simmering stadium, but also with a dash of poetic of the far-away view. The concept is based on four minimalistic desks of the tribunes clamped into the pace of the adjoining functions of the stadium. The tribunes are interconnected through rope frame, which roofs the tribunes and simultaneously co-functions as a single construction unit. This concept resulted in a complex solution to the construction from concrete, steel – compression and tension members that would enable practical implementation of this idea.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Vítková, Kateřina ; Kristek, Jan (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
Design of transfer terminal for Dvůr Králové nad Labem, which will allow the transfer between the train, regional bus and urban public transport and will connect the city to the overall infrastructure of the Czech Republic. It is intended to use the existing industrial spur leading from the railway station to the Teplárna Dvůr Králové nad Labem. In addition to its own transport function, the design of the civic amenities is also envisaged. The new terminal will also serve as a gateway to the city. When designing a conceptual solution, it was a decisive intention to take the terminal as a place where the transport solution goes hand in hand with the public space. Terminal is in this case undeunderstood as an impetus for the development of the territory. Not only it does have to fulfill its transport function perfectly, it should also serve as a public space and connect neighboring non-homogeneous entities. Definition (promenade), filling / interconnection (trees), opening (free area - soft border). The contrast of the covered subtle promenade and the massive masses. The two sides of the triangular parcel are clearly defined by the covered promenade. To the so-called street queue are placed individual functions in the form of units 6x6 m. From the west direction there is the ending of railway inserted to the promenade and an island platform used also for the tram stop, which passes the passage from the inside. The resulting courtyard is formed by a regular tree raster, which creates a clearly defined composite space in a disparate area. This "forest" optically unifies the site and acts as the core of the entire terminal. In perspective freake, the forest while passing through the terminal change, sometimes it creates lines, sometimes surfaces. It does not define clearly the exit nor the entrance, it is open in all directions. Bus platforms are integrated into the raster of trees. While waiting for the bus, one is protected by a vault of trees. Buses leave the orchard and pass through the promenade out of the terminal to 28th October street. Towards the center, Tesco and Christmas decorations, the open space is created, creates a soft border, allows free movement of people in all directions. The vision for the future also involves continuation of the tram line further into the center. The tram would go through the tree trunks out of the terminal around the Christmas decorations. Neighboring Tesco is seen here as an opportunity, it is embedded in the terminal area, its function at the station is more than welcome. The whole traffic of the terminal is one way. All the traffic comes from the west side. Buses pull away to the street of 28 October. Tramway to Benešovo nábřeží. The train ends here.

Wine Farmstead in Jaroslavice
Bauer, Karel ; Kristek, Jan (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The building of winery forms at the border created by recently defunct brickyard, located between break made by extraction and basement alley is creating pass into the vineyards. Its shape complements the landscape, leaving the vines to break through, create a place for relaxation and tasting their close contact. The underground part of the building is effectively used for wine making, tasting rooms on the first floor overlook the center of the action. Aside from the main building in a quieter part of the site are placed accommodation facilities for all visitors. The centrality of the working space and the availability of new vineyards makes workflow significantly easier. The new object so becomes part of the surrounding distinctive nature.
