Prague philharmonic building
Vrtílek, Osvald ; Plášil, Jiří (referee) ; Boháč, Ivo (advisor)
The diploma thesis on the Prague Philharmonic is based on the design of new concert halls for classical music, as well as other genres with additional functions alocated in one building. The site is located in Prague's Holešovice on the left bank of the Vltava River, near the transport route - Captain Jaroš Avenue. The site is delimited by the original development from the west, the river from the south, the railway viaduct from the west and new development from the north - this development is part of the planned reclamation of the Holešovice brownfield Bubny-Zátory, which has been implemented since 2000. The appearance of the created square results from the current state of preserved transport communications, while it also has the function of leveling the level differences by means of stairs on the north and east sides. The green islands in the square then define the course of pedestrian roads through the open space in front of the building. The shape of the building is derived from the shape of the main hall, located in the middle of the building, as a solid, non-transparent mass that grows from a transparent, light envelope in the shape of a low block. The facade is made by curtain walling from the glass panels of which are rhythmized in a ratio of 1: 2: 3 with alternating transparency. The building itself contains three concert halls - the main hall has an auditorium adapted to the type of vineyard, so it is possible to watch musical performances from all directions and yet offers unique acoustic conditions in terms of shape. The single-storey small hall has about half the capacity and is shaped into a shoebox type with a lower headroom, and the multifunctional hall has a screened floor on a hydraulic system, which ensures maximum adaptability to the type of event. In addition to the halls, there is a cloakroom in the spacious foyer, copying the floor plans of the main staircases, a café with refreshments and sanitary facilities. On the first floor, there is also music school with rehearsal rooms, a recording studio and a co-working workplace with seperated entrances. There are also separate spaces for commercial use. Most of the space runs from the first floor to the second, except for the northwestern part, where the music library is located. On the third floor, the foyer also serves as an exhibition space, around which on one side there is the administrative workplace of the Philharmonic and on the other a smaller cafe, a conference room for smaller events, and behind it VIP lounges. On the first underground floor there are garages and facilities for artists and the building itself - locker rooms, warehouses, tuning rooms, workrooms, studios and a rehearsal room. Garages continue to the second underground floor in one part and there are spaces for the technical equipment of the building in the other.
