Residental architecture at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries in Zbraslav focusing on the villa Planá růže
Nováková, Markéta ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Šmied, Miroslav (referee)
Annotation: This dissertation focuses on villa architecture at the turn of the 19th and 20th century, the causes for its development and its purpose. It focuses mainly on the area of the capital city of Prague and its vicinity as this is where the majority of buildings are situated. It pays close attention to historicism, an architectural movement that drew its inspiration from the art of the past. It explores the contemporary attitude towards and perception of this then new style of architecture. Having considered historicism and its influence, this work shifts its focus towards the origin and historical development of the town Zbraslav, which became a popular location for this emerging style of villa architecture at the turn of the 19th and 20th Century. In this town, the primary focus is the villa Plana Ruze from 1898, an interesting example of late historicism due to its neorenaissance gable, secessionist frescoes and a corner tower facing South-East. This is then compared to the Villa Flora and the Villa U Male Reky 621, which are also characterized by the South East facing corner tower.
