HOW TO MOVE ON WHEN THE STATION IS GONE?
Jálová, Kateřina ; Illéš, Juraj (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The diploma thesis is based on the pre-diploma project, which deals with the vacant buildings after the railway is moved from the center of Brno to the newly proposed location of the transport hub according to the KAM study. The diploma project focuses specifically on the heritage-listed building of the Brno main railway station. The aim is to find a suitable function for this building and to integrate it into the context between the historic center and the newly built southern quarter. The proposal also solves the building's surroundings, which include the area of the vacant railway track and the station forecourt with its complex traffic situation, which has been one of the least popular public spaces in the city for many years.

Working on updates!
Vašáková, Iva ; Pajgrtová, Marika (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
How to work with school buildings that have been standing here for many years and are designed in the style of teaching from the last century? How to respond to a time when the approach to both the education of teachers themselves and to teaching itself is rapidly changing? I perceive that the layout of most of today's school buildings lags behind the requirements of current teaching styles. School management is trying to deal with this problem, but despite the efforts they put into it, these spaces still play the role of backdrops in teaching. I think that the school building itself should be a creative and stimulating environment that provides a helping hand to teachers in teaching and children in their development. The diploma thesis follows on from the pre-diploma project, in which I research topics related to the issue of school teaching and its environment. It is about the development and functioning of modern approaches to teaching, their requirements for space, developmental psychology and understanding the context in the construction of school buildings in the Czech Republic from the 16th century. to present. In conclusion, based on research and analysis, I define the principles that I try to apply in my diploma thesis to a specific proposal for the reconstruction of a school building from the 1980s.

Our pub
Velechovská, Nela ; Jung, Adam (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
A free evening, a gathering with friends, a celebration, or a stop on a journey. All of these are provided by the pub. A Czech phenomenon, so uniquely ingrained in our culture, whose characteristics extend far beyond just the taproom with beer foam and clinking glasses. Over time, it has taken on various forms, its development influenced by numerous external factors. However, we can confidently say that its traits endure in any era or manifestation. Tradition, a sense of belonging, communication, and above all, a refuge where time changes its pace. A place that welcomes its guests with open arms and assurance. The thesis responds to the current state of pub culture in the Sudeten region of Bruntálsko and Rýmařovsko, presenting a manual for Czech pubs with a specific application to the conceptual vision in the given area. It builds upon a pre-diploma project summarizing the evolution and function of pubs over time. The proposal is informed by insights gained from observing the phenomenon. It engages with existing establishments, aiming to breathe life into them and proposing ways to approach them in the present day.

HOW TO MOVE ON WHEN THE STATION IS GONE?
Valíček, Viktor ; Illéš, Juraj (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
HOW TO MOVE ON WHEN THE STATION IS GONE? "I'll tell you how. It will be pretty crappy!" (visitor to the exhibition of the same name as the pre-graduate analytical project, 2024) The purpose of the urbanistic-architectural inquiry entitled "How to move on when the station is gone?" is particularly focused on the scenario where several historically protected buildings of significant urban importance in Brno lose their function due to the relocation of a major railway junction. That means, for the preservation of a functional city structure, it is necessary to find a new and equally significant utilization. Especially considering the location and real as well as abstract significance of these buildings. A crucial aspect is the location at the interface between the newly emerging city district in a brownfield area without identity and the oldest historic city center. Former structures associated with the railway aspire to become new significant urban landmarks capable of mediating the soul and identity of Brno to the new district. Connection is the main theme introduced by the urbanistic concept for the conversion of the area, developed in collaboration with the atelier colleagues Šimon Mareček and Kateřina Jálová. The study also builds upon the ideas of the Office of the Architect of the City of Brno, especially the concept of completing the green urban circuit (following the example of Vienna's Ringstrasse) and the idea of revealing the historic so-called Ferdinand Viaduct. The area is further divided into three consecutive sections (subtitles of three diploma theses). This work primarily focuses on the conversion of the released Amerika building and the newly designed urban space 'underlining the dominant feature of Brno - the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul'. "If a book of unfinished pages lies in front of us, its structure is already inscribed in the essence of the work itself." (Prof. Ivan Koleček, 2010) Amerika possesses an amazing genius loci and great potential to become a significant landmark for its surroundings. The "book of unfinished pages" of the former warehouse building has a structure so distinct and valuable that its violent rewriting would border on sacrilege. The building needs to be approached with extreme sensitivity, highlighting its qualities and adapting the space to new functions with necessary delicate interventions to avoid the destruction of the "structure of the work itself". The project aims to improve access to the building, creating connections with the adjacent park to the east through the revealed Ferdinand Viaduct and with the future city street with multifunctional buildings to the west. Better accessibility of the building is ensured by a level connection leading through a symbolic gate from the newly designed houses opening onto the proposed square beneath Petrov (the Cathedral of Saint Peter and Paul) to the main urban transport hub.

Reconstruction of Damaged Parts of Fingerprint Image Using Neural Nets
Bobocký, Boris ; Dyk, Tomáš (referee) ; Kanich, Ondřej (advisor)
In this paper, I propose a method for reconstructing damaged fingerprints using generative adversarial networks (GANs), implemented with Python and the PyThorch library. I have trained a specific GAN model on a dataset of approximately twenty thousand prints, created with Anguli and other damage simulation tools. This approach produced excellent results and could have wide application in biometric systems. This work highlights the potential of deep learning in the fields of image reconstruction and biometrics.

Porta Coeli complex - new use of selected objects
Prátová, Kateřina ; Žalmanová, Petra (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor)
The thesis focuses on a design of restoration of the Porta Coeli monastery complex in the municipality of Předklášteří, a unique and valuable place with a rich history and spiritual character. The current and historic purpose of the site is monastic life, which is now in decline and in danger of being completely lost. Large parts of the site, including historic buildings, are unused and unfortunately in a dilapidated state. The site offers visitors only limited opportunities such as a visit to the museum, guided tours or Sunday Mass in the church. However, the site has enormous recreational, rehabilitation and spiritual potential which the new design seeks to develop. Based on the existing condition and use analyses, the buildings and areas were selected for further development. Mainly a granary, a sheepfold, a coach house, the second quadrangle and an old laundry. Design of the granary and the sheepfold is developed in more detail. The construction program of the design respects the currently implemented and upcoming plans and intentions in the area. Targeted buildings have a diverse typology and functional content, which are thematically linked to create a coherent complex focused on wedding ceremonies, cultural activities and other social events.

The creation of construction drawing documentation of a terraced house in Mutěnice
Pittauerová, Petra ; Kratochvíl, Richard (referee) ; Kuruc, Michal (advisor)
The aim of this master's thesis is to create construction drawing documentation for the main part of a terraced house in Mutěnice based on a BIM model and to create a thematic map in the vicinity of this family house. To create the required attachments, on-site measurements were conducted using geodetic surveying techniques, including GNSS technology, tachymetry, and laser scanning. The key focus of the thesis is to describe the on-site and office work that was essential for creating the necessary outputs. The main output of the thesis is the construction drawing documentation of the main part of the family house at scales of 1:50 (floor plans, sections) and 1:100 (elevations). The thematic map is made at a scale of 1:250 in the coordinate system S-JTSK and the altitude systém Bpv. Due to the owner's privacy protection, the created BIM model is not included in the thesis attachments and will be provided solely to the owner of the family house. The outputs of this thesis represent the actual state as of August 2022 and will serve as a basis for the planned reconstruction.

Jelínková, Barbora ; Hrabec,, Josef (referee) ; Vojtová, Lea (advisor) ; Kalousek, Lubor (advisor)
Bachelor’s thesis deals with reconstruction and re-use of listed buildings of St. Thomas Yard in Brno. Good transport connectivity, pleasant surroundings and proximity of several academic buildings have predetermined this area for a new purpose instead of the inappropriate current one – in the future, leisure time centre offering hobby groups, sport activities, study rooms, gallery, café and parking-site should be sited here. Urban concept consists of building block with a park compound. There are three listed buildings with decorated frontals to be preserved, complemented by brand new lightweight low-profile structures. Modern objects situated next to the historical ones are designed to be transparent by means of suspended glassed-in exterior with distinctive sun shading elements on the south facade. Other buildings are specific for their single-pitch vegetative roofs emphasizing peaceful nature of the park.
