Tomkovo square is a place without clear identity. The indistinct character of the space is caused by traffic, which is the determining element and has shaped the face of the square since the past. Street lines had to be disrupted and the original buildings had to give ground to many traffic changes. This can be observed on the torsos of the buildings and large quantity of empty gables. Empty gables are typical element created near traffic constructions all through the city of Brno. This occurence can induce negation of the very purpose of natural growth of urban structures, in this case, however, due to rythmic reccurence of the gables, it becomes the staple element, which encloses the space and thus creates the square. The border is composed of two main motives – „solids and voids“. Solids are represented by matter - the empty gables. Voids are street spaces, passages or vistas that navigate somewhere, usually to a place with a public function, such as school, cinema or bus stop.The design of an additional function of student dormitories and a hostel is based on this thesis.

TOMEK’S SQUARE + CIRCUIT Bypass. Traffic. Cars. Chaos. Barrier. Will the project of new upper-level highway influence the functioning of Tomek’s square in a negative way? Will it become a big barrier which separates all of the surrounding into several isolated fragments? The urbanistic concept adds another local circuit to the Outer Brno Bypass which is designed especially for the pedestrians and which by its bright colour eases their orientation in such chaotic space. It also underlines all the attractive landmarks in the area - riverbank of river Svitava, Husovický hill, Sokol's sports grounds and new flea market situated under the bridge of Outer Brno Bypass. Centre of the circuit lies in Tomek's Square - current chaotic junction. TOMEK´S SQUARE – SPACE The concept works with idea of creating a new public space which the current Tomek's square lacks, it also reacts to its hectic situation by creating the oposite environment. Pedestrian circuit connects the surrounding areas, especially the new flea market linked to the new public space by lengthening supporting wall that defines borders of the flea market. TOMEK´S SQUARE – LIVING Composition of the corner footprint is inspired by the buldings in the current Tomek's Square. It respects its features by leaving the plan opened while clearly defining its inner courtyard. Therefore a new form consisting of four standalone buildings is created. Three of the objects serve as student's residence. They are connected by terraces with outdoor sport facilities. The fourth one serves as a hostel, an affordable option for temporary living. All of four objects' back sides are facing the new highway while being completely open on the opposite facade using balconies.
