Greenery of public spaces in new residential areas (residential areas on the outskirts of the cities)
Horká, Julie ; Kyselka, Mojmír (referee) ; Otruba, Ivan (referee) ; Urbášková, Hana (referee) ; Wittmann, Maxmilian (advisor)
In the current post-industrial society, with increasing requirement of sustainability, greenery significantly participates in the spatial, operational and functional organization of the urban environment. The first part of the thesis introduces relationship between formation and structure of greenery in an urban environment from the historical point of view. Elements of greenery in an urban environment and on its margins filled a variety of functions: from productional and aesthetical to the recreational and ecological. Green areas have also gradually become an important public space. In the current urban environment, areas of vegetation arise mainly in the form of recultivation of post-industrial areas, adjusted smaller parks, greenery of business and entertainment centers, or greenery of residential units. The thesis is focusing on the last mentioned type, which should be in the closest coexistence with residential environment and on the possibilities of creating eco-residential units, which can become a substitute /or at least one of the possible options/ to mono-functional residential zones emerging on the outskirts of our cities and in the open countryside and act against the ongoing suburbanization and its negative effects. The text of doctoral thesis is trying to find qualitative aspects of greenery which supports the creation of living, attractive and sustainable public spaces. Comparison and evaluation of selected examples from abroad /Austria, Germany, Holland/ and also from the Czech Republic brings us the definition of the necessary and optimum qualitative properties of greenery in public, but also semi-public spaces of residential complexes. These examples of good practice may be used - as a whole or in parts – as inspiration for the development of residential projects in the Czech Republic, either in preferred brownfields areas or in carefully selected areas of new development. The final chapter emphasizes the inseparability of the creation of public spaces and greenery in residential areas from the sustainable development of the area in terms of a penetrable and compact city.

Principles of formation of urban greenery as a part of urban interior
Hrubanová, Denisa ; Kyselka, Mojmír (referee) ; Havliš, Karel (referee) ; Prof.Ing.Ivar Otruba,CSc. (referee) ; Wittmann, Maxmilian (advisor)
Urban interior environment mostly serves as a place for various meetings and social events. Thus, these spaces come alive thanks to people, who give them reason and meaning. However, the question is what role urban interior has in the present day, which, at the beginning of the new millennium, is characterized by a high degree of individualism. Within the deurbanization tendencies, buildings and adjoining areas in central parts of cities are often abandoned and the activities move to the periphery. If we want to return the social function to the urban interior, as a place of pleasant encounters and relationships, we need to approach its formation with respect to current trends in the development of human society. From the perspective of sustainable development, it is also necessary not to extend the boundaries of urbanized area to adjacent landscape, while abandoning the central locations in cities, but to maintain their intensive character. From this point of view, it is necessary to realize, that it is the greenery that gives the city an opportunity to perceive public spaces as an integral part of urban life and not just as places that people walk through having no reason to stay longer than necessary. Application of greenery in urban interior provides many positive features to the city. Greenery is an added value that can also operate independently as a functional unit that links the other functions of the urban organism. Both in its solitary form and in line or area applications. Along with water elements, urban furniture, various hard surfaces and landscaping, greenery creates a pleasant and interesting living environment in the city that can be desirable and sought-after again.

New Old Brno Return of living to the city centres
Heralecký, Vojtěch ; Mikulášek, David (referee) ; Františák, Luboš (advisor)
The present thesis deals with an urban design covering area bounded by Křížková, Václavská, Hybešova and Nová Hybešova Streets. It offers a new design of future streets and public spaces because the thesis is an reaction to the architectural competition for the new conceptual design of Mendlovo Square. The thesis develops the area to the east and introduces a new design of the extension of Hybešova Street, new future streets and the Square. A part of this project also contains a detailed design study of the few selected city houses. The main objective is to design a sensitive urban concept aimed at increase housing density and allowing new possibilities for the designed area.

New Old Brno Return of living to the city centres
Lysá, Karolína ; Kaštánková, Jana (referee) ; Františák, Luboš (advisor)
The thesis deals with the topic of return of housing to the city centers. It is divided into three sections. In the first part I analyze the area concerned. The analytical part is followed by an urban study, which offers a solution to the reurbanization of the site. The last section is devoted to urban detail - a residential block divided into eight apartment buildings, four of which I work on at the level of an architectural study.

Prokešová, Markéta ; Bindr, Tomáš (referee) ; Kiszka, Josef (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with understanding the place, its analysis, reflections on future development and then the design of a new part of the city, buildings, renovations and modifications. It's necessary to think about social and cultural functions to ensure a comfortable life of the population, social interaction in the already existing community and support for incoming residents in the new part of the city. The semester work follows the proposal of revitalization of Svratka by prof. Ing. arch. Ivan Ruller, develops its potential and considers further expansion
