The Ideal City Nitra: The Klokočina Central Zone
Ďurčovič, Martin ; Csanda, Milan (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Jan (advisor)
The research objective of my diploma thesis is to identify and examine the potential of the central zone of the Klokočina housing estate in Nitra City through a spatial study. I work with the urban development concept proposed in the city zoning plan, which I thoroughly analyse and further develop. The main emphasis of the work is on creating a quality public space and promoting socially sustainable ways of future building development. I design new urban spaces and the subsequent urban building structure that shapes the new urban spaces. The proposed spatial study can serve the city of Nitra as a quality reference material for decision-making in the territory and spatial planning, which provides sustainable urban development.

New Embankments - Urban Redevelopment of Selected Area along the River Svitava in Brno
Strašilová, Zdeňka ; Sátora, Josef (referee) ; Kopáčik, Gabriel (advisor)
The thesis aims to create a project that will lead towards the formation of a new waterfront area along the Svitava river in Zábrdovice where poor condition of public spaces and the presence of brownfields cause the fact, that this area, located close to the city center, tends to be one of the least visited places along the river. The project deals with the relationship between the waterfront and the city, using the river's citymaking potential for site development and at the same time creates urban study in a way that will maximize the success of waterfront area as a public space. A strategic plan for achieving this objective is created parallel with the design itself.

Transformations of Public Spaces
Strašilová, Zdeňka
In Czech towns and cities, public space has become a widely discussed topic, with growing social demand for high-quality public spaces. In spite of this, we still often see public spaces – both new and created by transformation of existing ones – that do not fulfil their purpose and lack sufficient quality, despite significant spending. Yet the successful functioning of a public space is the main indicator of its quality. Today, leading world theoreticians agree that public spaces need to be adapted to people visiting them, and should provide room for social activities.
