Between the walls and the river
Šulganová, Lucia ; Plášil, Jiří (referee) ; Boháč, Ivo (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor's thesis "Between the walls and the river" was the design of a new multi-functional development with a predominant residential function, complemented by a varied composition of services and commercial spaces, suitable for the central city zone. The study also included checking the possibility of incorporating an important landscape element of the river's biocorridor into the urban structure. The addressed area is located in the town of Vyškov in South Moravia and is defined by Dvořákova, Antonínská and Dukelská streets. From the north, it is defined by the Haná river, which flows through the city. On the opposite side of Dvořákova Street, which borders the territory from the southwest, there is a remnant of the city walls. The concept is based on 9 apartment buildings divided into two blocks. The effort was to create a subtle development of three to four-story houses with gable roofs, which by their character will not disturb the atmosphere of a small town in a location close to the historic center.

Manifestations of Symbolism in a Contemporary Public Space
Sūdžiūtė, Goda
Contemporary urban design practice often focuses on addressing physical and physiological human needs without emphasising the symbolic dimension of the space. However, built environment can be regarded as a system of signs simultaneously functioning in both the material order of reality and the symbolic one. The option to address both aspects leads to creating spaces that are not only attractive but can also be interpreted by their hidden meanings. The paper addresses the issues of the symbolic dimension of a city in the urban and social contexts while using the notion of “spirituality in place” to seek out the qualities of the built environment that, through its physical design, allows users to find greater meaning in their surroundings. The objective of this research is to make these invisible qualities more understandable by exploring the relationship between the material form and the symbolic meaning.

STU Innovation Center in Bratislava
Dvorská, Mária ; Obrtlík,, Jan (referee) ; Májek, Jan (advisor) ; Hradil, Dušan (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor's thesis was to create documentation for the building permit and part of the documentation for the construction. The work follows the architectural study, which was developed in the subject AG35 - Atelier of public buildings. The theme of the studio work was the Campus STU Competition by Inspireli. The main idea of the idea competition was to design a representative center of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. The project includes the innovative STU science center, educational, social, multi-purpose and leisure spaces both indoors and outdoors and part of the rectory's workplaces. The Innovation Center serves students, pedagogues, researchers and employees of STU, as well as experts from practice, self-government and the public. The campus creates conditions for the interaction of the academic environment with practice and is an important communication space towards the public. This is helped by the opening of the complex and its connection with the main public spaces of the city. I designed a concept called "STUdents city", a city that has imaginary boundaries, while being open to the public, a city where students can find everything they need and can take it for them. During the new construction of the campus, I respond to the surrounding faculty buildings and the context of the place, and to make it open to the faculties materially and conceptually, and at the same time not to disturb them with its substance. I solved the problem of lack of light of the inner block by the potential of the sloping plot and by placing certain objects in the newly created terrain break, at the same time I ensured the supply of natural light and fresh air by means of atriums and skylights. When designing, I took into account the flexibility and variability of interior or exterior use. It was also important for me to use new technologies in the design for the technical school, such as facade glass that is environmentally frien

Genius loci and the new urban structure
Sotolářová, Alžběta ; Erben, Adam (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this diploma project is to design new urban structure regarding current living standards. In close proximity of the historic centre of Trebíč, new residential blocks with additional purposes will be designed and the bus station will be adapted to current needs. Public spaces will be adjusted to focus primarily on people rather than cars. The urban design is based on the historical context of this site by following the original historical structure of the Stařečka buildings. The new blocks use a system of platforms which deals with the difference in terrain and enable placing parking and commercial space as part of the block. The platform also creates private closed courtyard for the inhabitants of the block. The space of the bus station is moved to the ground floor of one of the newly created blocks and its capacity is adjusted to the current needs. The street areas will be supplemented by greenery. Komenského square regain the character of a square instead of just a parking lot, it is moved and adapted to a pleasant public space for people with some public features. The Stařečský stream originally used to flow through this area, but nowadays is piped. The design restores it, brings it back to the ground and reinvolves it into the life of the city. The new Komenského square should not overshadow the existing main and representative Karlovo square in the city centre, but rather work as a local public space for residents to meet-and-greet. In the Polanka locality is newly designed a residential structure formed by blocks as well respecting surrounding buildings. The riverside or the river Jihlava is more implemented into the life of the city, there are riverbank steps and small terraces by the park of Polanka and on the other bank of the river that allows people to come closer to the river.

Design of a contemporary city district in the environment of the historic city.
Landa, Karel ; Obrtlík,, Jan (referee) ; Májek, Jan (advisor)
The assignment of the diploma thesis was set to design new structure inside of historic city, which in the past went through major changes due to construction of main road leading through and dividing it to the 2 parts by creating a psychological barrier. This road was built mainly because of the construction of nuclear plant Dukovany to transit its part and component via this road. Simultaneously the thesis assignment was to design new bus station to replace existing one which is oversized from its completion and to incorporate this bus station to the life of the city. In my proposal I was creating the city structure by using principles set by historic structure of the city adapted to modern normative requirements while finding new genius loci of the area, which is in my proposal created by uncovering the Stařečka stream, which was hidden by construction of bus station. Next goal of the proposal was to improve possibility to walk faster through city by creating shortcuts and paths for the main and most important users of the city which are the people.

Campus + New university Library in Nitra
Šmídová, Anežka ; Šabík, Viktor (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the design of a university library in the city of Nitra in Slovakia. The main point in creating the library is how to properly design this library given the circumstances in the area, such as the dominant feature of the national monument of the Slovak University of Agriculture designed by architect Vladimír Dědeček. The second dominant feature of the place is the views of Zobor. The diploma thesis follows up on the undergraduate project, in which the entire new campus was designed. This proposal defined the location of the new university library. The form is based on the spatial composition [cardo, decumanus] of Vladimír Dědeček, which is observed by all neighboring buildings. The mass of the library tries not to draw attention to itself, so a large part of it is located underground. Another important point in the design is road transport, which divides universities. This phenomenon is taken into account in the design and thus creates another passage under this path, which connects the universities. The library occupies a large part of the area and therefore tries to return the occupied part with the help of green walkable roofs, which creates additional space for views and vistas. In addition, the proposal also works with road transport, which runs over the roof of the library. Overall, the proposal seeks to show what university libraries might look like, where it's not just about books and study places, but also about meetings, debates and listening.
