Polná ideal, the castle and under the castle
Kapraľová, Kristína ; Sedlák, Jan (referee) ; Kiszka, Josef (advisor)
The aim of the work is regeneration and reclamation of the main formal places and points in the Polna town, on the level of the town (part of the town), the castle complex and the main court. Using the town acupuncture method and focusing on the main and the most important parts, I created the system of segments (plateaus), which like the separate elements create the appearance of the town as a whole. In my diploma thesis I focused on segment of castle complex. Using the gradual regeneration of the main formally important places and points, I created its overall “ideal” condition. The result of my work is the design of alternative use of castle complex and castle court elements.

To the Mountains !
Kurajda, Matej ; Matějka, Daniel (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
Defining a new concept NP is based on the personal survival of human failure in nature preservation and giving the opportunity to spend time in deeper places in this mountainous landscape where the biggest negative impacts of forest extraction are. The project doesn’t define only new principle, but the process at the beginning of which makes the tourism of landscape views and clusters has became antiturism, antipanorama and depressed experience from the ruined landscape. Gradually with the restoration of the landscape, our relationship with her is renewed as part of understanding a land.

Design of a contemporary urban district in the context of a historic city - urban study
Stanislavová, Soňa ; Obrtlík, Jan (referee) ; Májek, Jan (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is to design a high quality timeless urban district or part of the city, in relation to the existing historic city. The area in question is located in the historic centre, which is also a conservation area. The site contains both urban landmarks and historic buildings. However, most of the buildings were built after 1945, when the town was largely bombed out. The main idea of the design is to respect the existing structure. The design complements the existing buildings and creates new blocks that clearly define public and private space. Other elements include making public spaces more attractive, revitalising traffic areas and improving pedestrian infrastructure. The newly proposed development is predominantly residential in nature and should increase interest in living in the city for young people and businesspeople.

Application of the principles of rainwater management during the revitalization of the former industrial area
Záchenská, Lívia ; Balasová, Kateřina (referee) ; Ručka, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis examines rainwater management in an urban intravillan, focusing on the revitalization of a former industrial brownfield in Brno. The study analyses the challenges associated with rainwater management and proposes an economical solution that benefits both citizens and the environment. The introduction provides insights into water management, including consumption, climate change, sewer line overloading, greywater utilization, and environmental impacts. The theoretical section explores the profitability of brownfield revitalization, incorporating an analysis of the former industrial area. Based on this analysis, a renewal plan for the brownfield is developed. The practical part introduces specific rainwater management facilities, addressing legislation and mathematical considerations. The brownfield is divided into sections, and the implementation of rainwater management facilities is proposed for each section. The facilities are accompanied by calculated charts and graphics for better visualization. This thesis contributes to the field of rainwater management in urban intravillan areas by presenting a practical approach to address the challenges associated with rainwater in a former industrial brownfield. The proposed economical solution aims to enhance citizen well-being and promote environmental sustainability.

Conversion of a city block in Ljubljana
Uhríková, Tatiana ; Rypl Žabčíková, Ada (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The design of the urban - architectural study of the city block serves as an ideological concept of the reconversion of the historic city block of Ljubljana and at the same time offers possible answers to the problem of thickening city centers, the use of vague urban spaces that have lost their significance. The first part of the proposal deals with the solution of micro urbanism of the inner block, which is currently undergoing many building modifications, which eventually led to its devastation and degradation of the environment. The design of urbanism responds to the naturalness of the urban organism, respects its unique context, and aims to create a natural setting that can become part of the site without compromising its original integrity and character. The second part of the design is an architectural study of the Cultural Center with a theatrical scene, whose idea and concept arose as a result of thinking about densifying the city and using the potential of "empty places" to bring new qualities and a new impulse to life. The process also applies the knowledge from the work of Christopher Alexander and his Language of Patterns, which served as a theoretical basis and a great source of inspiration. The analytical part and the process of work naturally resulted in the program of the cultural center and theater, as a suitable and missing element of the city, which will create a strong center of activity across different age groups and communities. The organization of the material structure of the individual contents and the division of the program answers the questions of urbanism, specific ideas about the functioning of the site, the quality of the environment, and the creation of a positive geometry of public space. The functional content in the center reflects the idea of thickening within the organization of space and creates the organism of the "city in the city". The term thickening is not meant primarily as a formal thickening, but as content, which brings many new, diverse activities to the area addressed.

Where is the community? Case study of neighborhoods in Žiar nad Hronom
Kirschnerová, Hana ; Illner, Michal (advisor) ; Kuchař, Pavel (referee)
Community and its ties to locality have been bothering sociologists and researchers since society has abandoned its traditional organization. Many of them considered positive and negative aspects of industrial and later modern society's influence on community sense and human relationships. This thesis will walk the reader through the influential writings on the topic of community, meaning of space and human relationships. Starting with the appreciation of traditional community, through worries about its disappearance, diminishing importance of local ties and ending with complete anonymity and individualization. The empirical part of this thesis brings up results of the research conducted in neighborhoods of Žiar nad Hronom, town in central Slovakia. Findings from the interviews were confronted with ideas of New Urbanism, basically confirming role of architecture design in neighbors' relationships. Intensity, frequency and quality of interaction among neighbors are thus influenced by factors of spatial design, length of residence and busyness of residents. Nature of the relationships among neighbors is far from ideal (as in traditional community) but people look for communities in wider sense, creating networks with people from other social circles than those bounded to a place.

Ušák, Matej ; Stankova, Mariana (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis is attended to the urban solution of Čierna Voda municipality aiming at the urban planning concept, infrastructure problems and the status of a satellite city of Bratislava capital. It also resolves connection to the capital and subregion problematics. The goal of the thesis is to evaluate factors and decisions which had an impact on the actual urbanism and pattern of the municipality in last years. Evaluation is done with the help of a zoning plan, town planning scheme and other urban planning documentation. The outcome information and knowledge can be used in further urbanism and urban planning in the on-coming years and plan the municipality citizen-friendly, respecting resident's needs and taking lessons from past mistakes.
