Spontaneous architecture
Bevelaquová, Diana ; Paňák, Pavol (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
This is a follow up on the work in the pre-thesis project Spontaneous architecture of Slovakia's segregated settlements. Architectonic principles and components, which were formulated in this previous work are based on in-terrain research and analysis of excluded Romani hamlets. These components are further used in this work. Certain principles that don't conform to the accepted procedures and trends in current urban planning get utilized here as well. These currently accepted trends in effect create tech-dominated no-man lands, that are more suitable as real estate speculation vehicles rather than living spaces. Areas created this way lack identity. This environment can't be shaped further by the owners. Shared neighborhood spaces don't emerge there and so humans can't identify with such an environment. In this thesis, these observed principles are applied to a concrete urban design in the center of Brno on a plot of land formerly occupied by factory Kras. This work attempts to provide an alternative approach to city planning and to designing buildings. The design approach presented here has the ambition to provide sufficient population density necessary for a city to function properly while not sacrificing the social and neighborly connections. This project concerns itself with the relationship between buildings and streets while putting the current regulations and norms for designing such areas in question. There is an ambition to bring streets back to life by following the example of the studied segregated settlements while allowing for phasing of the construction in the area.
