Industrial estate of the former fire-clay works MŠLZ Mladějov in Morava - functional usage of the area by the Industrial Museum Mladějov
Racková, Eliška ; Vojtová, Lea (referee) ; Hrabec, Josef (advisor)
The design goal is to propose future utilisation of large former industrial site containing heterogeneous set of manufacturing, service and dwelling buildings of different age and qualities. Also the site is heterogeneous itself – the old industrial grounds which are quite well maintained and long-term used apart from the new part – which has been conquered in hurry in the 60’ and now quickly disappearing in birch succession forest. The difference is reflected not only in site use design, but also in architectural solution of singular buildings. Buildings in the old part serv to the needs of Museum and its further activities and reacts to the style defined by Lichtenstein period architecture – power station and steam plant. Different pattern of each building aimed to utilization of the full building renovation approaches spectrum, ranging from steam plant conservation to analogical installation in the power plant to analogical reconstruction od wooden floor of the old furnance. Question of use and design of the blast furnances is far more complex and became the main topic of this work. The furnance approaches much more the LTO area than building one. It includes only two standard building spaces (threshers), the rest is taken by machinery or closed and inaccessible. The building character predestinates the furnances to become a archeologized monument. The design goal was to use the time still remaining for this unique structure with the intensity possible from the safety and functioning views. In the first stage, the furnance will house a community of artists, other creative or interested people functionally parallel to Cartuzian order monasteries. The housing units will be built in the powdery reservoirs, the common rooms in the threshers. A parallel to the chapel will be the furnance base – being accessible to the public. Every reservoir unit consists of two containers, winter garden and own garden space, every one is a miniature, but fully self sufficient unit surrounded by its own little universe, as the Cartusian idea requires. The main construction used will be the shipping containers, adapted for dwelling, put on suspended “cradles”. The unused rest of the reservoir space will be used as gigantic flower pot. In time, the roles of the spaces will change. The communication spaces of the former community house will become the only access to the furnance spaces and the corridor will remain half open as a view platform.

Závorka, Martin ; Herzán, Radovan (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The aim of the project is reconversion design of the chosen group of objects in former textile factory Vlnena into polůyfunctional house; and also to strenghten the genius loci of this site. Main theme of the work will be finding new functional use, as well as appropriate service and disposition solution of the polyfunctional object. This area was used by industry for more than 150 years. Before establishing the two of the most concerns, there were plenty of small manufactures. The overal stagnation of the textile industry in Brno has resulted in moral and technical degradation and its transformation into the „brownfield“.

Teaching-space paradigm
Dimitrov, Georgi ; Štojdl, Václav (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The project is dealing with building of a new Faculty of Architecture at BUT. The target area is located on one of BUT campuses between Údolní, Úvoz and Tvrdého streets.The proposal envisages the placement of the entire FA program in the building of the former barracks from the 19th century on Úvoz Street and adjoining outbuildings. The "extension" is not only an extension, as an enlargement of an existing building, but it is an opportunity for its reconfiguration. This creates a hybrid, a game between the old and the new, which forms a new way of using the object. Programmatically, the entire proposal is divided according to three levels of accessibility: the public, students and teachers and employees. The spatial solution is then solved as the mutual interaction of the three groups of users.

WHAT TO DO? Conversion of industrial premises, Brno - Obřany
Novotný, Vlastimil ; Rudiš, Viktor (referee) ; Oplatek, Jiří (advisor)
The proposal is based on respect for the original industrial buildings of the former textile plant in close contact with village character of the surrounding buildings. Self solution is to demolish some buildings (did not comply with building or town planning) and building new. The proposal is to create a few concourses (embankment, square, park), which serve for the students and for the residents Obřan. Disclosure of the island is allowed through the southern waterfront of the mill race. It is defined by a new building, which is partly built on the ground plan of the former weaving mill. The waterfront of the mill race stretches, across passage of the former mill and connects to the local bike path. With the embankment communicate two squares. They were created by the elimination some buildings. In the eastern part of the island is a park designed for rest and relaxation. It is oriented to the weir. All traffic and operation of the buildings in areal is controlled from the exist Mlýnské nábřeží street. On the island is limited entry due to supply. The solution also includes underground parking.

MUSEUM OF TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN BRNO
Svíbová, Tereza ; Zemánek, Václav (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The goal of this diploma thesis was area between the city parts Malomerice and Obrany. After the construction of mill drive, an artificial island was created there. Industrial site with textile factories was established in 1912, however it does not fulfil its original purpose anymore and it is fairly damaged today. My intention was to clear the island and bring back its original form - park, unique place in nature where people acknowledge proximity of the river and cultural activities as well. I designed textile museum in the former factory building. It is accompanied by pavilion of Contemporary textile and fashion and also engineering exhibition. One of the components is an artificial canal for canoeists.

Eufonie – Jaroměřice/R., Opera
Šabatová, Kristýna ; Hrůša, Petr (referee) ; Kiszka, Josef (advisor)
The subject of the diploma thesis was the conversion, reconstruction, revitalization and extension of the space and object of the "Opera" complex and the affected areas of the public space skeleton as a secondary core for artistic activities in the city and region. The town of Jaroměřice nad Rokytnou has a deep musical history, dating back to the Baroque period, when the Moravian nobleman Jan Adam of Questenberk lived here. Jaroměřice was a center of intense musical life, a theater was played here, where the public was also involved. Furthermore, the creation of the first Czech surviving opera On the Origin of Jaroměřice in Moravia, composed by František Antonín Václav Míča. In 2000, the musical spirit was followed by the Petr Dvorský Festival, which takes place in the Jaroměř Castle Gardens and adjacent villages. The proposed building consists of the existing Opera Hotel and the adjacent Department Store. The existing hotel complex is not fully utilized in the current situation looking for a solution. The department store has a similar problem, it does not fill its area sufficiently. Its location together with the shop is dominant due to the square. Between these two houses there is a significant alley from the station to the castle. The aim of the whole complex was to revive, beautify, brighten up and positively make the surroundings of the square and thus the whole city, district, region visible.

WHAT TO DO? Conversion of industrial premises, Brno - Obřany
Guzdek, Adam ; Rudiš, Viktor (referee) ; Oplatek, Jiří (advisor)
From 18 century, Czech lands were advanced industrial part of the Austrian monarchy and Brno became a textile industrial city. In the middle of 19th century in an open area of the island there was a spinning mill built in Obřany. Then 70 years later it was replaced by an object, which is the subject of the diploma work at this time. In process of time some other buildings, stores and offices were built and so created the atmosphere of an industrial town. The spinning mill with its strong dominant asymetric position by today's bridge over the river Svitava becomes a focus of activity on the island. Its neoclassical décor and large articulated windows remind style of French water palaces rather than an industrial building. Symmetrical building is disturbed by placing a water tower at the southeast corner. The internal structure clearly shows the contents of the original function - a storey location of machines. The object tectonics is also readable from this structure, where the top floor consists of a grid of slender pillars, while in the ground there are pillars bearing the brunt of all floors. And it supports my choice to make free no cut space from the fourth floor; with two skylights, which also gets daylight depth into the spinning mill. Dominance of the spinning mill over the island is balanced by plane-tree. It supports the assumption of the residence, since these trees can be found in many castle parks. Just these two symbols of animate and inanimate nature are becoming mainstays of my concept - the house and tree. At this time, when the island has failed to fulfill the function of industrial area, a closed unit, it should become accessible to the general public again. There were open green spaces till the early 19th century. In my project I clean the island into a form so that it will be subjected only to significant mass and old tree. The island will offer the missing grassed area in contrast to the surrounding forested hills.

Prison Story
Štefková, Dominika ; Petermann, Tomáš (referee) ; Kristek, Jan (advisor)
The thesis is a continuation of a pre-diploma project on the stigmatization of buildings and society's perception of buildings that do not have the most pleasant past behind them. The project deals with the question of the new use of the decaying prison in Uherské Hradiště. Through a meaningful program, it seeks to bring the building back to life and incorporate the current 19th century time bubble back into the urban fabric, while not obscuring the grim past of the site. The thesis is a continuation of a pre-diploma project on the stigmatization of buildings and society's perception of buildings that do not have the most pleasant past behind them. It deals with the question of the new use of the decaying building of the former prison in Uherské Hradiště. The project seeks a meaningful program and architectural solution that would bring the building back to life and integrate it back into the urban fabric. The Slovácké Theatre, which operates in Uherské Hradiště, is moving into the building. The Slovácké Theatre is located in the leased space of the former Sokolovna. The big disadvantage of the existing theatre is the small space for its facilities. Workshops and warehouses are not located here at all. In addition, the existing theatre building is located just off a busy road and thus has no space for people to linger after the theatre. On a symbolic level, the theatre is a program that allows the city to deal with the problematic past of the prison building in a lively way. The proposal does not preserve the prison building, it does not "musealize" it. It is not afraid of radical interventions and demolition, which allows not only to harmonize the operation of the theatre with the historical building, but also to make the closed building completely accessible and transparent. Consciously and through architectural design, the object, excluded from society, becomes its own opposite: a social centre accessible to all. A social conscience and a mirror, not a prison, but a theatre. At the same time, the redevelopment does not try to erase the prison past. The remaining fragments of the buildings are left in their rawness, with a clearly legible trace of solitary confinement and a façade in the style of "architecture terrible".
