New Synagogue in Olomouc
Kos, Jakub ; Velek, Jan (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The project was influenced by several factors, the most significant being the water element, which is very important for Judaism and primarily symbolizes ritual purification. The concept divides the area in the axis of Nešverova Street, making an orthogonal block, further separated according to the functions, and public area under which a part of the underground parking is located. The block consists of the synagogue, museum, restaurant and administrative building of the Jewish community with a library. From the architectural standpoint, the project was significantly influenced by the stained glass window of the burned former synagogue, which was, in more modern spirit, imprinted into the museum’s facade. This window becomes a dominant element of the facade, because it pervades all three floors, so the rest of the building is not divided and for lighting of the exhibition areas skylights and artificial light are used. Significance of this concept is intensified by the fact that the visitor is dragged inside, right to the front of the synagogue, to which a ramp leads. There is an importance of the mentioned water element in the design of the synagogue. The whole concept is approached organically and was inspired by a drop of water falling down on the surface. The synagogue literally grows from a body of water which surrounds it and creates a crystalline element. The idea is amplified by the water wall which runs from the passageway all around the synagogue. Part of the administrative building and the restaurant are designed in more simple style, but the idea of arch is reflected in the moulding, which was designed intentionally with reference to the surrounding buildings. The rest of the site served as a small park and this function has been maintained. A significant element in this part of the site is Theresian gate, which remained from the 18th century fortification. The park was supplemented by an artificial bank, which covers the entrance to underground parking a

New synagogue Česká Lípa
Pitis, Dimitrios ; Baranyai, René (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The topic of the diploma thesis is an architectural study of the new synagogue in Česká Lípa. The proposed solution aims to create a complex which serves the local Jewish community and other visitors. The building contains the temple itself, including a mikveh, community administration, workshop space, lecture hall, library, kosher restaurant, and underground parking. The original synagogue was located in the defined area. The design consists of a clear geometry, which creates an open courtyard, in which the almond tree associated with the Tu Tu-shvat holiday is symbolically planted. The courtyard creates a quiet and welcoming space, which is isolated from the negative effects of the surrounding environment. The building is divided into three parts - the synagogue itself, the administrative background of the Jewish community and a kosher restaurant. The shape of the synagogue differs from the rest of the complex. It consists of a rectangular shape that ends in a semicircle. Its entire volume is oriented to the east and is rotated against to the rest of the building and its mass partially encloses the courtyard. The temple space is illuminated by a window that runs around the entire temple. The semicircular shape is further copied into the interior, where it flows smoothly into the gallery. The overall geometry of the space is supported by a circular bima, above which is hung a chandelier made of gilded steel construction and crystal glass. The tract of the restaurant has a concrete slab, which creates a lee for the entrance and at the same time covers the outdoor terrace. The windows are placed at regular intervals to promote the overall dignity of the designed building. The design also includes a fountain and a memorial to the burnt-out synagogue. The monument is in the northern part next to the synagogue and its mass defines the imaginary boundary of public and semi-public space.

Večeřová, Pavla ; Velek, Jan (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The assignment of the diploma thesis was the elaboration of an architectural study of a new synagogue in the Frýdek-Místek. The solved area includes the original lands of the Jewish community, on which stood a synagogue, a Jewish school and a rabbinate. The synagogue was burned down in 1939 and currently only the rebuilt Jewish school building is located in the area. The main idea of the design is to build a memorial on the site of the original synagogue and a new synagogue with an adjoining community centre. The main goal is to support the development of the Jewish community in the city and to remind citizens and visitors of the history, because of which the Jewish community in Frýdek-Místek disappeared. In contrast to the monument, the entire building is set in the terrain so that the terrain passes freely in a public space with the main entrance to the community centre and a kosher restaurant. The building opens up to the south side of the slope and offers a view of the historic city centre of Frýdek. The area is connected by a footbridge to the park under the castle. Part of the community centre is a space for a ritual bath - Mikveh, the administration of the Jewish community and a multifunctional hall, which can be opened to the area in front of the residential staircase. The area is separated from Revoluční Street by a retaining wall and thus form an attractive place to spend time near the historic centre.

New synagogue Česká Lípa
Aulisa, Marco ; Velek, Jan (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The new synagogue Česká Lípa, which is the subject of this diploma thesis, symbolizes a new beginning for the Jewish community in Česká Lípa. In addition to the synagogue itself, the building includes the administration of the Jewish community with private and public parts and a kosher restaurant for members of the Jewish community and the general public. An integral part of the synagogue is the Mikveh cleansing spa and the Holocaust memorial. The concept location of the synagogue and the monument has a strong connection with the original locations of the burned synagogues. Very important for the Jewish community is the spread of enlightenment, which will prevent current misinformation, both in the field of Jewish religion and in general, everyday topics depressing our society. The building of the synagogue is located in a very inhospitable area. It is necessary to prevent the ingress of noise from the adjacent road and to deal with the incomplete urban environment. Last but not least, the outdoor part of the building needs to be made so that it can be separated from the surrounding area, but at the same time it invites visitors to the center of the building. This is achieved by placing the building on an elevated pedestal. The mass of the building is divided into three basic functions and is supplemented by atriums, which visually connect the individual floors and support the natural air circulation for better cooling of the building in the summer months. To provide a more natural environment, the building is complemented by trees. The facade of the building is designed in a grid of pillars, which give the building a dignified character and at the same time break the long empty walls on the facade. Between the pillars there is a facade cladding. The entire facade system is painted in white.
