Activation of retail centre
Šellongová, Slavka ; Matoušková, Petra (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (advisor)
(hyper- prefixoid? gr.? large, redundant, exaggerated) Shop fast. Shop efficiently. Close to. At the best price. Economically advantageous. Timesaving. Check-in and save time. Glory to the hypermarket. Finally, the effort to save time with shopping under one roof and the valuable idea of spending time with family or close friends somehow doesn't work. Trade and the market mean the movement of people, and it is not entirely possible for it to be marginalized. Because people are drawn where there are people, where there is business. Pulling from the city, the streets to closed worlds. To the boxes that are not interested in being part of the city. Except they still are. Even though they build a wall of parking spaces around them and operate on their island, they are still part of the city, although they do not want to see it. They are so looked at themselves that they also let people look only at themselves. Maybe they're just setting up a human mirror. What will be and what could be different in the future when looking for answers, what about empty spaces. How to answer it today. I come up with a specific example of a hyper-surplus-market in Bardejov, which remained after the departure of the Hypernova chain from the commercial market. The city lacks a hall that could be replaced by a sports hall deck. A hall where seniors would occasionally go to see their grandchildren's performances or where the petty bourgeoisie could enjoy and provoke the local amateur theatre. However, where teenagers would come to spend their free time even during a normal day, mothers would have a replacement for the park on cold days and people could find space to start their own business.

Old - new urban spa
Černeyová, Natália ; Kotásek, Michal (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The object of the town's spa is currently abandoned without use, in a pitiful state. As a monument registered in the central list, it is a testimony to the modern architecture of the 20th century and is among the most famous works of the prominent architect Bohuslav Fuchs. It was built in 1930 as the winning design in the competition for new city baths. After its opening, the inhabitants of Zábrdovice and others enjoyed a pleasant and clean environment for relaxation and balneology, at a time when the backyard households were rather rarity and the prize of richer layers. For Zábrdovice as the marginal industrial part of Brno, full of robot dwellings, the Fuchs Bath facility was an attractive opportunity for rest and recreation. The operation consists of two parts - summer baths with outdoor swimming pools and facilities in the eastern wing of the building and winter baths with saunas and small pools, which in their disposition unit offered bath-room areas accessible from the central corridor. For today's society, the importance of such a city-spa operation has disappeared and the inhabitants are rather relaxed in extensive spa complexes, saunas, and so on. The main objective of the proposal is to restore the whole area and to create an attractive environment that will correspond to the current running of the city and the needs of its inhabitants, while maintaining the function of the summer spa, which still serves to revitalize it. The new use of city spas primarily builds on the original purpose of the building and also respects the needs of the city and Zábrdovice. At the present time, there is a considerable lack of opportunities for sports, recreation and cultural activities. The main objective of the proposal is to restore the whole area and to create an attractive environment that will correspond to the current running of the city and the needs of its inhabitants, while maintaining the function of the summer spa, which still serves to revitalize it. The new use of the city spa primarily involves the original purpose of the building and also respects the needs of the town and Zábrdovice. At the present time, there is a considerable lack of opportunities for sports, recreation and cultural activities. The most prominent point of the project is the design of a covered swimming pool, which corresponds to the current needs of the city and at the same time creates space for the operation of the winter baths, which is thus moved from the main building and no longer bothers the building. The new building of the swimming pool composes the construction of the complex, smoothly and not disturbing it. Its construction system is based on existing structural axes, as well as the division of facades and interior dispositions. The mass and shape of the new building respects the original functionalist architecture, but it also adds to the fresh modern touch. The aim is to aesthetically make a stay in the area aesthetically pleasing. Likewise, the material solution strives to create a fine contrast between old and new on the one hand and material harmony of the entire architectural composition on the other.

Brewery in city – conversion of indrustrial area
Balciarová, Jana ; Polakovič, Štefan (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
The main aim of the work is the conversion of the non-functional industrial site of the former canning factory and re-engagement of unused and unattractive territory into life city cycle - new life - new energy. The conversion consists of restoring a former canning factory building to the city brewery and restoring a former administrative building to a kindergarten. The brewery is complemented by services such as a beer bath, a beer museum, a beer restaurant and a hotel. The aim of the brewery is to revive the tradition of brewing in the region and to restore its industrial and cultural heritage. To connect it with the city not only physically but also socially, while supporting the untapped potential of tourism development. The region has long been struggling with a shortage of nursery schools. The original administrative building from 1902, which is currently almost unused and depreciated, has a favorable location in terms of availability and environment for primary education of children - connection with the park and the football field, which is also closely cooperating with kindergartens. The concept supports and benefits from the urban design of the city's revitalization of the adjacent sports and recreation zone, which is already under way. I see the site conversion as a stage of completing this section of the city.

Conversion of a city block in Ljubljana
Uhríková, Tatiana ; Rypl Žabčíková, Ada (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The design of the urban - architectural study of the city block serves as an ideological concept of the reconversion of the historic city block of Ljubljana and at the same time offers possible answers to the problem of thickening city centers, the use of vague urban spaces that have lost their significance. The first part of the proposal deals with the solution of micro urbanism of the inner block, which is currently undergoing many building modifications, which eventually led to its devastation and degradation of the environment. The design of urbanism responds to the naturalness of the urban organism, respects its unique context, and aims to create a natural setting that can become part of the site without compromising its original integrity and character. The second part of the design is an architectural study of the Cultural Center with a theatrical scene, whose idea and concept arose as a result of thinking about densifying the city and using the potential of "empty places" to bring new qualities and a new impulse to life. The process also applies the knowledge from the work of Christopher Alexander and his Language of Patterns, which served as a theoretical basis and a great source of inspiration. The analytical part and the process of work naturally resulted in the program of the cultural center and theater, as a suitable and missing element of the city, which will create a strong center of activity across different age groups and communities. The organization of the material structure of the individual contents and the division of the program answers the questions of urbanism, specific ideas about the functioning of the site, the quality of the environment, and the creation of a positive geometry of public space. The functional content in the center reflects the idea of thickening within the organization of space and creates the organism of the "city in the city". The term thickening is not meant primarily as a formal thickening, but as content, which brings many new, diverse activities to the area addressed.

Conversion of Grain Silo in Zlin
Mikócziová, Martina ; Štikar, Jaroslav (referee) ; Nový, Alois (advisor) ; Donaťáková, Dagmar (advisor)
The subject of this bachelor´s thesis is a conversion of the grain silo in Zlín, which is situated at the western outskirts of the Bata´s area, behind the City heritage zone. Along the southern side of the property there is a railway no. 331 Otrokovice – Vizovice and a four-lane road which is the main traffic connection going through the entire city of Zlín. The main new function of the building is the adventure centre. It offers various activities such as trampoline gym, laser game, mirror maze, karaoke, indoor jungle gym for kids and adventure activities for adults. Apart from these, additional features can be found in the building, including a shopping mall, restaurant, offices, accommodation facilities and a café with a beautiful view of the city. The new function of the object brings an interesting feature to this part of the city and therefore makes the area more beautiful and attractive to people. Regarding the construction, the building has a rectangular ground plan, a flat roof and in the past it was functionally divided into 2 parts. The lower part with 6 floors was previously used as a fruit and vegetable warehouse. The second part with 10 floors is where the grain silos were situated. The load bearing skeleton is made of reinforced concrete round columns with a diameter of 650mm, in a ground plan grid of 6,15 x 6,15m which is typical for Baťa architecture. The floor slabs are made of reinforced concrete supported by stiffening secondary beams. The concrete frame structure is filled with brick masonry on the outer perimeter. The new functional use of the building keeps current state of the load bearing structures. A significant intervention is the demolition of walls between the silos, leaving only the load-bearing structure of columns and a modification the eastern and northern façade.

Conversion relating to vacant historical buildings of the castle Žďár nad Sázavou
Dzianová, Hana ; Zemánek, Václav (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The area is located in the southern part of the castle complex in Zdar, land in an urban zone. The original function of the castle in Zdar was a Cistercian monastery, founded 02.05.1252, which is credited with the expansion of the region. The castle is close to important UNESCO World Heritage Site - Pilgrimage church of the John of Nepomuk on the Green hill, which is a prerequisite for tourism in the region. The architectural design is based on the idea of recovery of unused buildings for the benefit of tourism on the one hand and on the other hand, it seeks to enrich local communities and the region. Suggest a feature builds on the newly created Museum of the new generation, which represents the potential of tourism. The draft proposal seeks to complete the missing and necessary functions in the area while trying to build on the tradition and the original object function.

Evaluation criteria of industrial heritage - practical application
Zelik, Radovan ; Hrabec, Josef (referee) ; Králová, Eva (referee) ; Staňková, Eva (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The protection of monuments in Slovakia is mostly concentrated on „classical“ examples of cultural heritage (castles, historical city centers). It is not paying much attention to industrial buildings, which are important documents of national development in European context from the era of industrialization. These buildings are often also on the edge of public interest, due to their brownfield character, what places then into the great risk. Because many of these buildings are in private hands, it is often complicated to define the protection policy. It is in the interest of healthy development of society to protect cultural heritage as part of its own identity. The thesis is monitoring approaches to protection of monuments in Slovakia, as well as in global context and offers alternative approaches in terms of protection of industrial heritage.

Conversion of the former textile factory Larisch and Sons in Krnov
Illéš, Juraj ; Deferová, Michaela (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with the conversion of the area of the former textile factory Larisch and Sons in Krnov. The urban design of the area introduces a reinterpretation of the mill race corridor, and creates attractive public spaces connected with the castle area and the historic city center. New functions are proposed in today’s unused historic buildings. The buildings of the former spinning mill and warehouse are converted into administrative and residential premises. The buildings of the former sample room and the production hall house the museum of the textile industry. The architectural solution seeks to preserve the original historical values of the existing buildings and, through the proposed additions, to bring a modern architectural expression to the area that respects the industrial character of the place.

TRANSFORMATION OF AN INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IN PARTIZÁNSKE (SK)
Krátka, Barbora ; Grísová, Petra (referee) ; Havliš, Karel (advisor)
The content of this diploma thesis is an urban study with the architectural details of the former Bata Industrial Park in Partizánske, and a particular conversion program for the building. My goal was to find a suitable concept for converting building no. 61 with respect to the city, to the people living in it, and to reintegrate into the life of a building that is empty today, unused and dilapidated. The goal was not to forcefully fill the functions of the building, but in successive steps and phases to find a solution how to reuse the building and to point to the factory as a element of the city's foundation and also to highlight the unique architecture of the Baťa period.

Polná ideal, the castle and under the castle
Kapraľová, Kristína ; Sedlák, Jan (referee) ; Kiszka, Josef (advisor)
The aim of the work is regeneration and reclamation of the main formal places and points in the Polna town, on the level of the town (part of the town), the castle complex and the main court. Using the town acupuncture method and focusing on the main and the most important parts, I created the system of segments (plateaus), which like the separate elements create the appearance of the town as a whole. In my diploma thesis I focused on segment of castle complex. Using the gradual regeneration of the main formally important places and points, I created its overall “ideal” condition. The result of my work is the design of alternative use of castle complex and castle court elements.
