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.

The Building on Obilní trh
Holbová, Natália ; Petruš, Lukáš (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The Obilný trh is an unmissable public space in the image of the city of Brno. However, its southern part has not yet been completed and hides a huge potential for the development of the city and its public institutions. The form of public administration and its offices are facing long-term criticism. There are minimal examples of modern, open, flexible and sustainable public buildings. Social discourse is calling for them more and more, and architects must have an answer ready for them.

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.
