Brno Skyscraper
Gebauer, Pavel ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
The architectural-urban design of the skyscraper responds to the proposed territorial study of the South District located near the historic center of Brno. The currently developing area is defined by the area of the new main railway station, the Svratka river and Opuštěná street. This new representative unit lacks an element that would make it unique even from a distant perspective. As well as the historical center with its cathedral of St. Peter and Paul defines the place,the skyscraper complementing the space of the new main station creates an authentic orientation element of the new urban district representing the innovative principles of the city's development. The location of the high-rise landmark near the main entrance of the new Brno railway station helps in easier orientation in the area. The vertical mass of the skyscraper contrasts with the vast and relatively low mass of the station hall. The composition of the building responds to the urban structure and location in relation to the historic center. The base of the building fully respects the regulations and the height level of the street in which it is located. The crown of the skyscraper rotates around its axis and thus directly reacts to the city center by its rotation, thus creating a dialogue between history and the future. The skyscraper is designed as a multifunctional object primarily represented by the function of a hotel with a congress center. These functions are also complemented by secondary units in the form of cafes, bars or restaurants. However, the building also has other services for users, such as wellness, fitness and massage facilities. The last floors of the skyscraper are designed as public. The functional content of the crown of the skyscraper is completed by a cafe and a sky bar with a brilliant views.

Aspects of High-Rise Housing, Based on Analysis and Observation of Chinese Cities
Toman, Radek
“Throughout the city, whole blocks are being flattened, turning parts of the former “Paris of the East” into huge construction sites - a chorus of cranes, jack-hammers and bulldozers chiselling out the foundations of skyscrapers, elevated expressways and subway tunnels. Architects are having their fling with modernism - designing huge glass-faced office complexes and luxury apartment Blocks.” [1]

The Thesis gives a proposal of the reconstruction of the building, extensions and annexes, new functional use (areas for sale and for rent, restaurant and hotel) and proposal for the peripheral jacketing solution. There was an aim to generate such a design, which would refer to the original building from thirtieth of the 20th century, which would follow up with the idea of a skyscraper located in the centre of Brno and whose functional utilization would suit to the current needs.

High-rise building in Brno
Caha, Jakub ; Kotek, arch Jakub (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
In this study is designed high-rise object in Brno in the city part called Veveří. These propose is divided for two high-rise towers of hight 177 a 57 meters, which continue on next door high-rise building of office centre Šumavská. These objects are connected each other with glass neck.

Skyscraper "EVO"
Kohoutová, Zuzana ; Kotek, Jakub (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The subject of this diploma thesis is the architectural design of Skyscraper "EVO" (experimental high-rise building) located in Brno. The building integrates various functions (residential, restaurant, shops, office space and gallery) at relatively small built-up area. The aim of the thesis is to create the design of a high-rise building with appropriate scale and which creates space for interconnection of different functions and will become new dominant of the city. The proposed building is located in the part of the city called Veveří. The building site is defined by Šumavská and Veveří streets. The building is designed as a single rectangular prism shaped volume. The entrances to the building are at the level of surrounding terrain. The building has 31 aboveground floors and 9 underground floors. The simple shape of building is structured by horizontal bands of consoles which create shields against excessive sun exposure and vertical atriums embedded in the main volume. These atriums connect interior and exterior. This atrium create connection between interior and exterior and ease the penetration of natural daylight inside the building. The dominant material used is glass, which is applied both in exterior and interior. The glass used on glazing of atrium sis colored transparent photovoltaic glass. Bands are in white color.

Skyscraper "EVO"
Juřík, Michal ; Velek, Jan (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The study offers a solution of a high-altitude object in Brno in the city part called Veveří. There are proposed two towers which are designed in a simple cubic form ( their heights are 154 a 80 metres ) rising from the surrounding buildings. Towers are mutually interconnected by lower object in the same morphology. In the object are situated administrative spaces, hotel, restaurant, coffee bar, penthouse, congress hall, vertical gallery, painters´ incubator and parking house. Particular functions can be connected because of layout plan, or can be used as separate units. The interpretation of the facade of the object is to highlight verticality, due to the raster and increasing reflecting surface of glass segments verticality and evoke by this a feeling of a tower ending in the middle of clouds.
