The topic of the bachelor thesis is the Exotárium pavilion in the Brno ZOO, which supposed to replace the existing building, which no longer meets the spatial, hygienic or technical requirements. The building is located in the center of the ZOO area at the intersection of several visitor routes. Conceptually, the design is divided into two buildings – the tropics pavilion dedicated to Papua New Guinea and pavilion of inland Australia. These two buildings are connected on the underground level by a technical floor. Areas for animals are adapted for the breeding of exotic birds, small mammals and fish. The pavilion is divided longitudinally into three tracts – technical and hygienic facilities, corridors for visitors and indoor aviaries. The building is equipped both for the preparation of feed and the care of animal health, as well as for the rearing of young. In the center of the layout is the central space for visitors and the Water world. The extended area of the corridor is equipped with furniture and presentation equipment, which can also be used for lectures and events for schools. The dominant element of the space for visitors is the acoustic ceiling consisting of prisms of different lengths of green wood wool. This ceiling is intended to create the impression of a canopy of a tropical forest. The curved wall between the aviaries and the corridor is intended to offer unconventional views into the aviaries, but still provide the animals with sufficient privacy. The building is serviced through a staff entrance on the south-east side of the building and the technical facilities are accessible via an unpaved road on the underground level from the south-west slope below the Australia pavilion building. This route is only used to transport the technological equipment of the building. The building, with its predominantly gray and contrasting interior, corresponds with the Australia pavilion, where more earthy colors are used. The buildings are united mainly by the facade and are connected by the construction of through external aviaries.
