Sustainably living village - Urban design of the village of Brněnce in relation to the former premises of textile factories
Poláková, Marie ; Obrtlík, Jan (referee) ; Májek, Jan (advisor)
The content of the diploma thesis is an urban study of the village of Brněnec with a focus on the area of the former textile factory. Brněnec is a municipality where Czechs, Germans and Jews have lived together for centuries. The originally conflict-free relations between the residents were violently broken due to the influence of historical events. The Czech-Moravian border passed through the middle of the village, then the border of the Protectorate. The local factory of the Löw- Beer family was an important branch of international importance, later becoming the scene of the rescue of Jewish workers by Oskar Schindler. The author's aim was to reflect historical events in the design to the maximum extent and as sensitively as possible, but at the same time with the intention of creating a building that is pleasant for users, with an emphasis on sustainability and aesthetic requirements and regarding urban connections on the scale of the entire village.
The Map of Brno
Pulicar, Martin ; Klímová, Barbora (referee) ; Kögler, Žaneta (advisor)
„Hic sunt leones“ is a printed publication that represents the outcome of diploma thesis Map of Brno. It is a pocket-size map in a form of a book describing the dark side of Brno, fitting contextually within the scope of urban exploration. Locations described within the publication are far beyond the general interest of the majority, and even the alternative minority, of population within the city. These are locations whose visit may result not just in dirty pants or possible conflict with the police, but also in injuries or even death. The inaccessibility of these places is emphasized by the inaccessibility of the map itself, which is being tested at it's very edge of usability. Accurate cartographic mapping is not the intention of this project, neither it is the process of making these places easily accessible. Mediation of their unique atmosphere and providing the evidence of their mere existence is the primary intention here. More so because of the fact that such places are subjects to very fast perdition.

Reflection of archaeologized landscape elements in ethnographic resources Mgr. Jan Pohunek Abstract: This thesis discusses contemporary folklore interpretations of meanings of abandoned and decaying buildings and other types of artificial immovable monuments. Mutual relations between these interpretations and modes of place usage are also being observed. The research is based on ethnographic survey focused on Czech republic and including primarily interviews with various respondents and crtitical analysis of written, electronic and audiovisual resources. Aside from general part of the research, several sites were chosen as a more in-depth example of formation of meanings belonging to an archaeologizing place, a complex proces influenced by the history of the site, its physical appearance and other attributes. An attached catalogue includes collected contemporary legends related to abandoned places and a system of categorization of their motifs is offered. This collection is further discussed, especially with regard to ways how character of a location and activities that take place here influence appearance of various motifs. In general, it can be said that different abandoned places are also perceived differently and there are groups of motifs that are more characteristic for certain categories of places....
