Šnerch, Jiří ; Teplý, Vladimír (referee) ; Odvárka, Antonín (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Ladislav (advisor)
On the basis of the study, created in the subject AG32, it is processed following bachelor’s thesis, which further developed the study to level of Building permit documentation and Documentation for execution of the project. The theme of the work is a Modern art gallery Brno, for that was entered instead of building on Kraví Hora in Brno, Veveří. Near of the solved land is park, located at Kraví Hora, the Observatory and Planetarium in Brno, a swimming pool on Kraví Hora, gardening in the neighbourhood of the northern and eastern sides, and tennis court halls at the southern border of the plot. The land is sloping, which relatively affected the design. My main idea was to create a monumental building for the public, which will represent its function, and at the same time it will be possible in accordance with the morphology of the terrain. This helps the rendering of the façade of the building with a Colonnade on the imaginary postament, formed by the lower floor, public space in front of the gallery with landscaping, and reduction in the northern part of the object with a green roof to ground level. The Gallery has the function of cultural-educational, with the associated functions of the commercial, which represents integrated Café and leasable space Studios. The architecture of the building itself plays with a combination of the rational and the organic concept.

Making the Land Cultural
Michálková, Kateřina ; Trejbal, Jan (referee) ; Ambrůz, Jan (advisor)
Cultural Landscape Drinkers for cattle For my bachelor thesis I chose the topic which is dealing with the landscape and man's relationship to it. The selected area is unused rural landscape with almost no use at this moment. The project, among other things deals with the design of site-specific objects, sometimes land art installation. Javorníky valley, between the villages Bohuslavice u Zlína and Salaš, was consisted of a small fields. In 70s they built a fence around the valley with a drinkers inside and they began graze a cattle. Field were changed into pasture for several years . But already in the 80s was pasture canceled and cultural quality of the valley began to deteriorate. Present day, the area is primarily for hunting, cultivated by local Hunting Association. The result looks that the valley is overgrown, most of the meadows are not to mowed and the forest is expanding. The journey disappears. No one other is interested in the local landscape, and is here just a fewwho are attend it. My project uses construction of drinkers which are deployed in the valley. A concrete blocks with metal structures can serve as a basis for sculptural and architectural objects. Places in the landscape that have lost their meaning can be reused. And hopefully it will help to attract the people back into the landscape.

Cultural Center in Koprivnice
Urbánek, Libor ; Pechman, Tomáš (referee) ; Sochor, Jan (advisor)
Architectural conception reflects most problematic issues of the contemporary status. These issues are: too many functions under one roof related to confusing operation, low constructional height and poor backlightening. Thanks to elimination of too many functions and clear definition of new operation the new space has been established inside the building, which is not already used but it is removed from mass of the building. the new solution creates proper backlightening as well as enhances orientation inside of the building. The construction is therefore more open towards its surrounding.
