The Ideal City Trenčín: The new Train and Bus Station
Holbová, Natália ; Petruš, Lukáš (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The diploma thesis is based on a pre-diploma project, which focused on analysing the city of Trenčín. The analyses and the questionnaire showed what the city lacks and what the city excels in. This was followed by the selection of one specific problem. By solving my chosen problem, the city would come closer to being ideal. I focused on the train station and its surroundings. This was due to the negative responses in the questionnaire I created and in the available online analyses of the city. I also included its surroundings in the design for a better revitalisation of the place. The proposal itself is in the spirit of respect for the place and resolving the problematic state of the place. The aim is to replace the inappropriate existing buildings with new ones that will add to the functionality of the site.
The Sustainable City: Future Timber Buildings
Lacková, Zuzana ; Krištof, Michal (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the issue of sustainable urban development using timber buildings as a means to achieve this goal. It takes into account the knowledge gained in the pre-diploma thesis with the resulting design of a complex of residential buildings and a civic building made of wood in Brno. This ensemble creates a model of the so-called ideal sustainable city, which provides a different perspective on contemporary urban design. Nowadays, sustainable urban development is one of the main issues in urban planning and architecture. With the growing awareness of environmental and economic challenges, there is an increasing demand for alternative solutions to ensure the viability and prosperity of urban environments. Within this context, timber buildings are gaining increasing attention as an environmentally and economically viable solution for urban construction and planning. Wood as a building material has unique properties that make it attractive for the urban environment. Its versatility, lightness, thermal insulation properties, and unique aesthetic potential make it an ideal material for modern buildings. In addition to being a renewable resource, its construction and use have a minimal environmental impact compared to traditional building materials.
