The Hybrid Research Method Used for (Un)Planned Bratislava Examination and Interpretation
Bočková, Monika
This paper describes the hybrid method used in the (Un)Planned Bratislava research (2019). The city of Bratislava was analysed as a permanently open work consisting of layers of fragmentary built visions. Part of this research was based on the visual interpretation of archive findings in the spatial context. The use of architectural digital tools allowed new complex comprehension of the issue. Various visualisations of selected locations helped to reveal new causalities in the history of their development.

The socio-ecological transformation of the former Prague slum "Pod Bohdalcem - Na Slatinách"
Barkász, Csilla-Zsuzsa ; Novák, Arnošt (advisor) ; Čada, Karel (referee)
The thesis is the result of qualitative field-research, based on semi-structured interviews and observations in the former Prague slums Pod Bohdalcem and Na Slatinách. The research reflects competing visions of various stakeholders with regards to the future development of these last almost fully preserved colonies, which were created for- and by the poor. The thesis also reconstructs and monitors the development of the conflict that arose between the inhabitants of the colonies and the urban planners in the course of the creation of the study "Bohdalec-Slatiny- Brownfield Strašnice", which proposes a new city-district in the area of the former colonies. It further captures the main reason for the dispute, namely the different perceptions of the colonies by its inhabitants and the institutions responsible for urban planning. For the first actor the area in question means 'home', as well as a place with rich history, while for the second it represents mainly a lucrative brownfield. The thesis also compares often incompatible visions of the stakeholders. It further describes signs or strategies of resistance that the inhabitants manifested from the beginnings of the colonies to the present day. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the concept of the right to the city and considers the...

Design of sustainable urban structure of the 21st century in the Czech Republic
Gladiš, Filip ; Erben, Adam (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
The project focuses on the design of a sustainable urban structure in the southeastern part of an area called Červený kopec, in the land of former brick factory. This urban-planning study endeavors to create a suitable structure for the brick factory brownfield. There are relevant factors which influence the proposal, such as complicated terrain due to the mining history, inconsistency of the surrounding urban structure, improper traffic accessibility, and orientation towards the city centre. The concept is based on the legacy of the area. It builds on the slopes and steep hills and preserves two building of the old factory, which aims to become the centre of the whole area. It is also important to mention the nearby National Landscape Heritage Červený Kopec, which would be connected via a forest-park to the recreational area of Mahenova stráň. The outline of this park creates a soft partition between the city and the park. The whole area is accessible by traffic from three access points, one of which is a newly constructed crossroad with traffic lights connected to the street Jihlavská. This proposal emphasizes the effectivity of the land use, traffic hierarchy, human scale, and the importance of pedestrian movement. The area is characterized by central design, with the ethos of the brick factory. It creates a cultural centre for the whole district and sets the way for new development or restructuralization towards a sustainable future for the city of Brno.

Design of sustainable urban structure of the 21st century in the Czech Republic
Dubinová, Veronika ; Erben, Adam (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
The objective of the diploma project was to repurpose the area of military barracks in the residential neighbourhood of Černá Pole in Brno. The thesis sets out to design a new urbanistic concept within the already existing structure, devise a new town square, a park and a town hall for the district of Brno-Sever. In this project, I aimed to fill in the chasm in the current construction and create a new lively neighbourhood. The selected area is to provide its residents with high standard of living and a rich selection of facilities. The essential aspect was to focus on different types of the residential development that surrounds the given perimeter. The eastern and the southern side reveals terraced houses and family houses, while on the west side the conservatory of the Mendel University is laid out and in the north high-rises can be seen. Through this project a new space emerges, activated through various types of residential development while blending with the residual structures. Also, another goal was to design a new town hall for Brno-Sever with a cultural centre, situate a new kindergarten in the area and construct a community centre with sports facilities. Due to the lack of more prominent town square in the city district Černá Pole, the positioning of this feature was highly significant in my project. The designed square should be multifunctional, enabling the residents or wider public a wide range of utilization.

Chandigarh - Indian dream of the city
Spilková, Klára ; Tichý, Jan (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
This Bachelor’s Thesis deals with the creation and development of the Indian city of Chandigarh, built on the green field. Its creation was necessitated by major political problems related to the establishment of India as a sovereign nation. The first part explains architectural and urban principles of the world-famous architect Le Corbusier, who was the author of the Master Plan of Chandigarh. Subsequently, the creation and development of Chandigarh is laid out, up to the present. The practical section compares Chandigarh with Amritsar, a traditional Indian city, followed by a study of the present state of selected city sectors, together with an analysis of the land use. The purpose of the Thesis is to present the problems of city construction on the green field, including an analysis of functionality. Given that there is as yet no Czech work dealing with the creation, development, and present state of Chandigarh in a similar extent, this work might be found useful.

Legislativa a veřejné prostranství
Boušková, Linda
Legislation has an impact on the shape of cities, which of course include public spaces. Although public space is a generally known term, its definition is problematic in terms of Czech legislation. This article analyzes public space through the lens of Czech legislation and draws attention to its contradiction with another valid law. This article illustrates the interpretation of legislation, using the urban structure of the city of Brno as an example. This article will also speculate about its weaknesses.

Možnosti technologie blockchain v územním plánování
Obršál, Norbert
Town and country planning documentation can be defined as a static database of plots on which layers such as functional areas, height of built-up area, floor area index or built-up area index are applied. Changing and updating this database is a process which takes several years. This paper deals with the new technology blockchain. Updating a blockchain database is based on a decentralized and shared peer-to-peer network. The inductive and qualitative research method maps the possibilities for the use of this technology within the town and country planning system.

Bučovice - residential area Za zámkem
Jetelina, Martin ; Vojtová, Lea (referee) ; Hrabec, Josef (advisor)
UP Zavody Bucovice was a an important furniture company in Czechoslovakia. At the end of the 20th century, production in Bucovice was terminated and the abandoned site became the largest brownfield area in the city. In early 2018, the city bought the land and began demolition of the existing production facilities and buildings. The new city district will be created after demolition. The new area will offer significant urban development potential of the city of Bucovice.

Hranice – redefinition of urban structure
Uherková, Ivona ; Ryšavá, Hana (referee) ; Ponešová, Barbora (advisor)
The diploma thesis Park and Ride deals with the design of a car park in the town of Hranice, which is known mainly for its important transport train node and Hranice Abyss. The city now suffers from the high intensity of car traffic in the city center due to insufficient street network. This network is disrupted by a four-lane road that was built in the 1980s and cut natural transport links. The abolition of the four-lane road, which is now lacking in transport services, releases a large amount of development area, which is primarily used as an agri-recreational area. Part of this green belt is the parking house, which prevents the entry of surplus cars into the city center. The parking house is a new transport hub of the city, which also includes elements of alternative transport - transfer to public transport or bicycle, which makes it possible to create a city center pleasant for pedestrians.

Implementation of current European principles of public space solutions into Czech cities
Černý, Patrik ; Erben, Adam (referee) ; Pavlovský, Tomáš (advisor)
The goal of this thesis is to define the current public space of a city and to introduce its main elements and characteristics, also the planning principles of public space and types of public activities of a citizen in a city. The thesis is mainly focusing on the ideas and principles of a Danish architect and urbanist Jan Gehl, after who I am describing types of cities and as well as the analysis of main principles in city planning according to the book Cities for People. It describes the relationship between the citizen and the city and it follows the main questions of creating an ideal public space for its residents and visitors. After the conducted detailed research of a specific place, the thesis establishes positive and negative aspects of the given space and creates a methodology for designing the public space. Thanks to qualitative questionnaires, I evaluated the views of citizens on key questions about the quality of given public space.
