Vlček, Marek ; Mašek, Radomír (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The diploma project is resolving the possibilities of designing contemporary buildings into the historical context of city centre. The emphasis is aimed on urban integration of new volumes into the present city structure and its genius loci. The result of the design should be buildings with specific character and clear dispositions using quality materials. The area is located near the city centre of Hradec Králové and is defined by the streets Comenius, I.Herrmann and Hradecká. It is directly adjacent to the historic city center. In the middle of the area is flowing The Orlice River, which divides area into two separately designed zones, communicates with each other. The presence of the river is considered to be a distinctive urban-forming element that needs to be used and promoted in the city. One of the characteristics of the site is the poor state of public spaces, several significant barriers, whether moving, operational or visible and urban unconnected areas or unreasonable used areas and buildings. The surrounding of The Orlice River, flowing through the center of Hradec Králové, is from near future very important, but at the same time hard to handle. All three facts - the city center plot, the presence of the river, but also the neglected public spaces - leading this area rehabilitated, revitalized and made accessible to people.

Genius loci and the new urban structure
Fišerová, Markéta ; Erben, Adam (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
The assignment of the diploma thesis is the design of a new city structure and the strengthening of the genius loci in the city of Třebíč. In the 1980s there was a construction of large-capacity bus station together with main road which has led to demoition of multiple original historic building and changing the character of the area. The main idea of the proposal is respecting of the existing structure and especially finding the values and genius loci. The proposal is to gently complete the structure with adding stories and creating new block structure which clearly defines public and private space. The proposal envisages the construction of a southern bypass, which allows the modification of the main roads in the center. Other elements of the design are the discovery, modification of the line and access to the Stařečka stream, reconstruction of the bus station and improvement of pedestrian permeability through the area. The newly designed development is mostly residential in order to increase the density of inhabitants living in the city center and at the same time to limit the expansion of the built-up area by residential development into the landscape.

Modern Art Gallery
Aulisa, Marco ; Fišer, Jiří (referee) ; Odvárka, Antonín (advisor) ; Pěnčík, Jan (advisor)
The subject of this bachelor thesis is the draft of a new building of the Modern Art Gallery. The plots in question, i. e. no. 272/51 and no. 272/56, on which the construction project is placed, is located in the cadastral area of the city of Brno, with the main access to the land from Benešova street. The building is situated on the land near the border of the plot with Koliště Street, i. e. on its northeast side. The basic concept of the project, that originates from the sole frequency of the surrounding streets, aims to balance the unevenness of the housing development. At the same time, one of the objectives of this thesis is to develop the plot so that the character of the circular bypass around the city centre is preserved. The shape of the final draft was greatly influenced by two urban axes, namely north and southwest, one of which characterizes the housing development in the direction from the Brno City Hall and the other is characteristic for buildings located in the direction of the Main Train Station. The axes then meet in the middle of the proposed building. The proposed building has four floors, while the underground floor also serves as an garage. On the first floor there is a café, which is connected to a outdoor space with staircase steps. The layout of the gallery on all floors is multifunctional. The third floor also partially serves as a terrace. The proposed building is characterized by inducing a feeling of lightening, which was achieved by embedding the first and third floors inwards and also rounding the corners of the façade of the second floor. An important element of the building is also the solution of natural light penetration. Within the exhibition areas, natural lighting is solved by a fully glazed façade, where a foil is inserted between the individual glasses, which absorbs all direct rays. Only neutral dispersion light gets inside the object. The facade of the building is solved by concrete cladding in its natural design.

Facelift PDU
Sobotková, Monika ; Dvořák, Tomáš (referee) ; Nový, Alois (advisor)
The master thesis deals with the facelift of the forecourt of the Dukovany Nuclear Power Station . This space consists of supporting functions for the main working such as administrative, metrology, stocks, cloakrooms and services. There is also the station for the buses, which carry employees to and from work, the regular bus station and parking lots. The forecourt of the power station is now inconvenient from a functional point of view, because the capacity of the existing buildings and parking lots is insufficient; and also from aesthetic point of view, because the buildings from 70’s don’t look good anymore, the parking consists of the large asphalt areas and there is no representative anteroom in front of the main entry, which should be there in view of the significance of the power station. In the study I deal with these problems by the complex reconstruction of the area, I replace the huge asphalt parking lots with the parking houses, create the administrative zone with the public place in front of the main entry to the plant, extend the capacities for the particular functions and add the new required functions (kindergaten, other services). The result of this conversion is the area with the particular functional zones with the representative forecourt in front of the main entry and with the enough space for each of the functions. This work follows up the last semester urbanist-architectonic study. The diploma thesis focus on the improvements of the weaker parts of the prime study and on the elaboration of the architectural study of the adminstrative zone with services.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Remišová, Lenka ; Toman, Radek (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
Project focuses on terminal in Dvůr Králové. Addressed area is part of brownfield in southern part of the city, located on place of railroad track from 19th century. Projekt is based on understanding the terminal as a living public space. Terminal means movement. Passenger are moving. However, when this purpose is fullfiled, the place stays empty. The aim of the project is to create public space – centrum of meeting and time spendinf for citizens. Urbanistic solution respects the qualities of the space and uses the original placement of railrioad track. Volume reacts to unstebilized spaces around by being circular and creating its own inner space. Building has significant lienar horizontal character, which is being disturbed by dense ammount of pillars and wooden lamellas on facade. Those provide partial shading of the interior. Building structure is based on reinforced concrete skeleton.
