Garden city
Štefková, Dominika ; Pohůnek, Jakub (referee) ; Toman, Radek (advisor)
Both blocks are architecturally almost identical. Their only difference is in the mirroring and the change of functions in the ground floor. The mass of the block has a square floor plan, which maintains a flat urban mass from the outside. The retreating terraces are oriented inside the block, thus creating a conical atrium. This atrium does not follow a square shape but is widened on the north-south sides. Around the perimeter of the block there are flats which, together with the supporting structure, form a facade from the outside. The inner perimeter of the block consists of shared terraces. These terraces form the communication of the whole building. All stairs are connected to it. The terraces give way to each floor by 1.5 m and with them the staircase arms are located on the east and west sides of the atrium. To the north and south are two stairwells with an elevator. The floor plan arrangement is centrally axially symmetrical.

The original building of the academic canteen was built in 1929 as the work of architect Vinzinger Baier, a professor of architecture. In terms of context, the building is located on the border between a busy city and a vast park. The premises and mass of the building respond in abstraction to the city / street transition with clear order and nature through a rational conception of disposition and facade into the street, and subsequent decomposition and irrationalization both vertically and horizontally towards the park. Thus, the object is a special kind of fragmentary gradient, and so it is handled within the framework of the reconstruction of the Center of Architecture, linking archive of modern architecture and creative center in one institution.

Revitalization Program of Floral Garden in Kromeriz
Krůpa, Miloslav ; Ruller, Ivan (referee) ; Foretník, Jan (advisor)
This thesis deals with revitalization of Garden’s foreground in Kroměříž (Czech Republic). The aim is to accomplish an optimal development of designed area, especially the best use of new structures located in newly established visitors sector (visitors centre, exhibition centre, show- and sales room, coffee house with platform, related horticulture, technical and sanitary background, labyrinth, water basins). The first way to optimal use of designed area is closing the current entry to Garden and creating new entries to foreground and Gardens, together with a primary segmentation of the area with the aid of two major axes, which form leading paths and concur to possible access roads to foreground. Polygonal rendering of new horizontal structures connects green roofs of buildings to surrounding areas and opens the green roofs to visitors, simplifies their orientation in the Garden and offers them an all-around view. The main elements of designed area are polygonal segmentation of territory as a counterpart to the Garden on the one hand, and creation of new modern garden on grassed area, which is completed with above mentioned water basins, on the other hand. In the visitors sector, there are located necessary facilities for visitors (foyer, salesroom for tickets, WC, information centre with bookstore, technical background for employees). The exhibition function holds the exhibition centre. Commercial function of designed area (show- and sales room, coffee house with platform) is independent of functioning of the other buildings. Existing structures of tropical and cold greenhouses are preserved, but the project changes the function of entrance building. General impression culminates with various green and water areas, with a system of paths that defines polygonal shape of new structures, the labyrinth, which serves as an attraction for children, and restored Aviary as a place for relaxation. Designed structures and their both vertical and ceiling constructions are made of reinforced concrete, external walls are provided with facade heat insulation system with final white colouring. Some vertical constructions are joined with steel pillars. The roofs with intensive or extensive green vegetation are provided with glass railing or rust-resistant steel railing with wire panel. All openings are glassed with CW50 structural glazing, together with standard aluminium frames.

Everywhere between this module if designed gardens and whole this area is roofed by transparent construction to keep it usable whole year.
