Between the Landscape and the City
Promna, Denisa ; Nový, Vítězslav (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (advisor)
The subject of the thesis was to prepare an architectural and urban design of the entrance space at the premises of the Palacky University Faculty of Natural Sciences in Olomouc - Holice. The proposal focuses on understanding the place of life of students and scientists. The main proposed building is based on a golden section - not only architectural matter, but also the contents of the buildings works with an understanding of the importance of education. Communicating knowledge to future generations. The current state of the site is created by a spontaneous development without a closer urban solution. The new object is positioned in a position that creates a clear, dominating character, but also respects the current state. The object focuses on meeting people with an idea, over a book or in a circle of study college. In contrast to that, relaxation and relaxation in the countryside appear. This is the inspiration for the creation of a building, while there is a certain rationality in the choice of architectural expression. The interface between the city (man-made) and nature is represented by a disk-dialogue forum. The spiritual overlapping of the architectural expression will allow us to understand the interface and potential of the site on the outskirts of Olomouc. City - nature
