Compact City - or what new is able to yet be done in Brno among railway stations
Strnad, Roman ; Wahla, Ivan (referee) ; Havliš, Karel (advisor)
The integration of an official project for overground railway viaduct into envisaged urban structure of Brno city south centre is the key consideratoin of this project. In terms of transportation relationships in the regional scale this line can provide with the transport options spread more evenly. Moreover, the junction in the existing position would remain in operation since the new regional railway station is placed in there, avoiding the only junction available in the replaced station further away. The new regional line technical project (concept: ing. Josef Veselý, project: Metroprojekt a.s.) has inserted the railway viaduct upon the space designated for a wide boulevard connecting the replaced railway station to the city centre. The boulevard is defined in the city´s masterplan. In terms of architecture, image of the city and sensual quality of space, the presence of a huge traffic infrastructure is not desirable and causes serious public and proffesional considerations. The Compact City project challenges this dilemma by wrapping the viaduct in the building volumes. The project suggests that the spaces both beneath the viaduct and above it could be utilized. Such a solution has been seen in many european cities (Vienna, London, Paris, Amsterdam). The Compact City project´s land use strategy brings up and defines relatively broad and homogenous areas for distinctive uses. This is derived from the knowledge that the particular uses tend to accumulate and segregate from one another so as to reach the most efficient position. Being the city considered as a whole the mixture of uses seam to be more convenient when an appropriate scale of mixture is achieved. Enclaves of a particular size, nor too big nor too small, would be glued and connected by a elements shared in use and heterogenous in form. The housing area is both divided and at the same time connected to the area of commercial and shopping by means of the public amenities being housed in the overrail building. Particularly those uses and activities are envisaged and designed which do not require a perfect contact and access to and from the street space.

The Students themselves - Student Center Poříčí
Švancara, Ondřej ; Strnad, Roman (referee) ; Makovský, Zdeněk (advisor)
Study - calmness. The whole composition referes to this connection. The building is calm, simple, without any complicated details, which let the student`s fantasy raise. Elementary composition has also "soothing" effect in surrounding scattered development. Student center consists of two elementary parts, material "weighty" building designed for student living, and "light" translucent part for their enterteinment. This translucent part allows the outer city space to communicate with the gentle inner yard - connexion between city exterior with its interior.
