The area of the former barracks lies near Sokolnice falling into the periphery of Brno. It is a picturesque village that has a rich history. The barracks are located on a hill called Stará hora, there are several cadastral areas. Near the building, we can find a radar that manages the nearby Brno airport, or the Peace Mound built on the Prateck Hill, soldiers fall to remembrance. The design principle was based on the given operation and its related functions. Dining room, rehabilitation, barber, pedicure, buffet and, last but not least, a multifunctional hall with a small library. The destruction of the unnecessary transformer station and the replenishment of the mass was a logical solution to the situation. It is an assembled reinforced concrete frame 8x8m. Inside the half-block we find a terrace with a pool, which is trying to create a specific microclimate and humidify the surroundings. The pool also serves as a retention tank and the house effectively manages rainwater. Within the lifetime, because of the corrosion of reinforced concrete and the unclear condition of the structure, I designed the exterior cladding to demolish and build a new cladding, a brick made of ceramic blocks. The house is designed in a minimalist spirit and cooperates with the greenery in its surroundings. Especially in long-distance views of integration into the landscape, this greenery is valued. The spirit of place in heavy air bears a strange whiff of dragging death that, when thinking about the history of a place, froze and freezes ... so perhaps while resting before the last journey ... that house discourages and breathes a little life into dying ...

Impact of smoking bans in pubs and restaurants
Vávra, Vít ; Běláčková, Vendula (advisor) ; Poláková, Olga (referee)
Background: The aim of this study is to find out how the smoking ban in public places affected the turnover of restaurants and bars, tobacco consumption and the number of smokers in Europe. To become more familiar with this issue, we will analyze some reasons in favor of implementing the ban. At the end, we will compare collected results with a view of economic theory. Methods: We will focus on five states where regulation has been introduced, namely Ireland, Norway, Italy, Scotland and England. The data necessary to analyze the impact of the ban are obtained from particular studies examining changes in selected states. Then, we will summarize all information, determine how the hospitality sector and tobacco industry were affected and if our results are corresponding with economic theory. Results: Arguments of regulation promoters seem to be at least controversial. From our perspective the only valid argument is based on health complications, which are caused by passive smoking. The growth was not measured for any surveyed area in any country. Regulation caused a decrease in turnover of pubs and restaurants, in sales of tobacco and the number of smokers in the population was reduced because of that too. The economic theory says that structure of the market is shifted by the smoking ban to the inefficient form, which is corresponding with measured results. Discussion: Considering the economic and in our opinion even moral view, it would not be wise to introduce the smoking ban in public places. Both of surveyed branches suffer from the regulation. If the chance to choice whether an establishment will be smoking or not stays in the hands of the owners, who are trying to perfectly meet the supply of their customers. Then there will be an optimal allocation of both smoking and smoke-free establishments, which will cause a maximization of social welfare.
