Historic Building as a Museum (Contemporary Architecture and Heritage Conservation Issues)
Trefná, Magdaléna ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Bendová, Eva (referee)
The master's student will conduct a study dedicated to the question of using heritage objects for the presentation of museum collections with the emphasis on art museums and the possibilities and limits of contemporary architecture. The subject of the thesis will first be explored through a short historical review which will organically connect the history of collecting with the history of architecture and historic preservation. The chosen topic will be further specified through a case study showing some of the issues faced when adapting and using heritage objects for the needs of an art museum. This will be done using the example of the National Gallery in Prague. The core part of the thesis will be a comparative analysis of selected contemporary architecture interventions in historical buildings in the Czech Republic. This will lead to conclusions about the relationship between the generally accepted belief in a cultural - ideally museum - use as a non-conflict ideal of a future life for heritage objects, as well as the opportunities and limits of contemporary architecture in its fulfilment. A selective catalogue and a picture appendix will be part of the thesis. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

New forms of housing at the beginning of the 21st century Various forms of housing evolve gradually depending on the technical development, life style and different cultural environments. The goal of this is to observe the evolution of residential housing from 1960's to the present. The key point of this dissertation is to find new forms of living at the beginning of the 21st century and its use in lower level buildings. When we consider "new forms of housing" we mainly speak about buildings with contemporary architectonical style, uncommon interior dispositions or the use of innovative constructional material (copper, corten and copilit). Next chapter explores typical and specific examples of these new architectonical styles that had been build in the Czech republic in the past few years. Each individual house or building is characterized and deeply analyzed. We can think of the terrace house - residential villa in "Kosire", villa style residence at "Hanspaulka" or isolated residential house in "Bohumilec". This dissertation is based on projects that had either been constructed, are being built right now or are simply ideas that might or might not be build in the near future. At the end of this dissertation I focus on issues with these new forms of living compared to the evolution of architecture...
