Roots of Moravian Urban Structure
Mohelník, Ladislav ; Löw, Jiří (referee) ; Prokeš, Oldřich (referee) ; Hrabec, Josef (referee) ; Koutný, Jan (advisor)
The thesis has been written on the basis of main architectural concepts and their application in real life within a historical context investigation. Main architectural concepts are represented in a harmony of architectural composition that deals with relations among form, structure and space in the unique art work. Genius loci play very important role in the architectural creation - it represents a special and extra-ordinary urban locality and its architectural value in the historical, geographical and cultural context. The origin of Ostravice village within the historical frame concept of Moravia domain is the topic of this thesis. Other historical documents gave information about Bruneswerde as the Brno Castle. That means Brno Castle had to be founded not in Brno (as it has been consid-ered for many years) but it was located in Beskydy at Ostravice. The sacred city – Civitas Dei had been located in Bruneswerde region in early ages as the centre of European culture, education and spiritual life. Civitas Dei – divine Jerusalem in the transcription of St. Augustine's book De civitate Dei – is not only glorification of God and religious fantasy. It is also one of significant clues for recognition of historical architecture. The depiction of unknown settlement from the book of unde-fined origin is a superb testimony about extinct architectural works. They are legible from cadastral maps. Brno Castle - residence of nobility and power served shelter to St. Vojtěch, St. Prokop, St. Václav and St. Ludmila as it is obvious for the mentioned picture. Three major temples, three com-position axes symbolized by three towers on coins are in analogical relation to Brno triangle of four saints - the Saint family of Brno temples. Powerful ambitions of Brno City principals and clergy are inscribed into the urban structure in the way of composition relations which are legible to them who devoted themselves to the mystery of harmony. The absence of historical continuity affects personal attitudes and also identity of the whole community. The architecture truly reflects the past state of polis and it is eloquent even after its death. The architectural composition relations influence the natural environment for long time, longer than the architectural work existence. The geometric order of Renaissance Brno existence has not been in attention of architects so far. The features were discovered in characteristic paintings by Albrecht Durer. They are evidently secret works of the genius. A meaningful collaborator and follower in the extensive project was also his friend Jan Čert from Brno and lately from Vienna. His noble genealogy played a significant role in history of Silesia and Moravia for centuries. It is tendency to consider him as Austrian or even German architect. It is because of the fact that the genealogy tree of his noble family had roots in Moravia. It is supposed that Durer with Jan Čert´s support created the extraordinarily monumental architectural and urban works in Brno. A remarkable consensus in the urban composition of two squares and transition of traditional urban structure of Ostravice Civitas Dei into the modern Brno is also confirmed due to the identification of noble creators and owners, who were at the foundation, transformation and extinction of elements of the Moravian urban structure.

Music Club Brno
Pappová, Martina ; Fišer, Jiří (referee) ; Odvárka, Antonín (advisor) ; Matějka, Libor (advisor)
The bachelor thesis expands the architectural project created in the framework of the subject AG35 in the spring semester on a level of a Building permit documentation and a Documentation for execution of the project. The theme of the task is a new building of a concert hall with the defined land on the Údolní street in Brno, in front of the park Obilní trh. Surrounding historical buildings from the 19th century strictly follows the street line. But that line was broken at the defined land by the impact of a bomb in World War II. On a neighbouring plot, the created space was filled by a building of regional ombudsman, which doesn’t follow the street line anymore. So its continuing isn’t required on the defined land neither. Sloping terrain influenced whole concept, which consist in implanting the building into terrain, so that followed surrounding terrain and connect park Obilní trh with park Špilberk through walk-on roof surface with vegetation and a newly build park in front of the concert hall. The building is divided into two parts from exterior. The first one is a polygon and it is mostly under terrain. A small surface of façade above a terrain is largely created by glass curtain wall supplemented by white stucco. Here is located a main entrance and a foyer, a main concert hall, a café, rehearsal rooms, an exercise studio, an atelier, changing rooms and technical facilities of whole building. While the second rectangular part, in which is situated small concert hall on the second floor, is as if levitating block overlapping over a volume of the first floor and it is garnished by structural panels from glass fiber reinforced concrete. The cladding goes to the ground in the southeast corner of the block and there are panels with inscription “hudební klub” or specific name of the concert hall instead of the structural panels.

The cultural centre in Brno
Ašenbrenner, Jan ; Ležatka,, Lukáš (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis further elaborates the newly elaborated architectural and constructional study to the Documentation for building permit and Documentation for construction work. The assignment of the work was "The Cultural Centre in Brno" located on the plot no 723 at the Údolní street opposite the Obilný trh. It concerns a gap site at the 19th century historical housebuilding resulting from the bombing of Brno during the World War II. It regards a sloping land rising to Špilberk Castle. The proposed new building of the cultural center fills the whole gap site between one existing detached house and a row of houses going towards the historical centre while respecting the street line, which was one of the aims of my work. Another aim was to create a relatively quiet and pleasant area near a busy street connecting the adjacent Obilný trh with Špilberk Castle and recently opened Otevřená zahrada, which is a public outdoor area built by a neighboring ecological center. An outdoor open-air atrium, surrounded by the new building, was created and it is ended with a staircase following the rising slope. The building has three above-ground floors, the first floor spreads further into the plot and carves into the slope where the level of the roof ties to the adjacent slope. The entrance to the atrium is formed by an open passage that seems to be pressed into the mass of the object and narrowing vertically in the direction from the street to the atrium. The aim was also the maintenance of the green in the area, all roofs were designed as intensive vegetative with the intention to achieve the contrast between this green vegetation and "rough" corten facade, which by its random perforation suggests a free abstraction of art taking place inside.

The GAP in Brno
Bartoňková, Markéta ; Hýlová, Adéla (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The undeveloped gap directly invites its completion, the closure of the block. Due to the nature of its surroundings, the newly created building will fulfil the function of housing. It will provide new apartments and a unique atmosphere for its new residents. As it is located on a distinctive street, so the proposed house will follow this conceptual idea. It will not become invader or an intruder. The house becomes a new personality with respect for the elderly and pure romantic soul within.

Completion of the area Údolní 53 for the Faculty of Architecture and Faculty of Fine Arts
Vrabcová, Anežka ; Malá Opletalová, Jana (referee) ; Makovský, Zdeněk (advisor)
The proposed VUT Art Campus is situated around the area of the streets Úvoz, Údolní, Tvrdého, Všetičkova and Jiříkovského. It lies in between two of the Brno’s most attractive recreational spots, Špilberk and Kraví hora. The project offers a creative solution of connecting two VUT’s faculties, the Faculty of Architecture and the Faculty of Fine Arts. An important part of the proposal is the gallery of the students’ works which also serves as a connecting element between the faculties. One of the main objectives is the creation of the Green Line originating at Špilberk and finishing at Kraví hora. As such, the campus works as a cultural point of interest on the way around the city. The whole concept aims to highlight the uniqueness of the faculties while stretching the importance of their interconnection and the need of a co-operation.

The Building on Obilní trh
Jálová, Kateřina ; Ježková, Tereza (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The Obilní trh is a notable public space in the image of the Brno city. Its southern part has not been completed yet, although there is plenty of potential for development of the city, or its public institutions. The form of public administration and its authorities are criticized for a long period of time. There are a minimum of examples of modern, open, flexible and even sustainable public buildings. The social discourse is calling for them louder and louder and architects must have the answer for this calling prepared.

The Building on Obilní trh
Daňová, Barbora ; Štěpánek, Martin (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The gap on the opposite side of Obilní trh has been a neglected area for a long time and it looks unaesthetic. The location of the place is ideal for the construction of a building of public interest as it is located near the city center and at the same time it is surrounded by nature especially the park around the castle Spilberk. The situation is solved in this thesis by designing a multifunctional building which houses mainly the Office of district Brno střed, Brno City Architect's Office and the Urban Center. The premises attract with their variable use and also with the mutual communication of the building with the outdoor spaces. The urbanism of the design respects and complements the surrounding public space while not disturbing the current state of public infrastructure and life in the city. On the contrary, the design supports the attractiveness of the place and the city of Brno as such.

Brno, Husova and the foot of Špilberk.
Poulíčková, Radka ; Rusín, Tomáš (referee) ; Kiszka, Josef (advisor)
My bachelor thesis deals with the design of a town building. The building is located near the center of Brno on the steep foot of Park spilberk at Husova Street. There are entrances to the 10-Z bunker at the foot of the hill and a footpath leading from Spilberk Park. My intention was to design an object that would connect the center (city) and park (nature). The design is based on the appearance of a town building with a residential function and services. Part of the work is also the modification of the surrounding park areas and transport corridor.
