Besides looking for something new in architecture, thinking differently, I always focus on the way how architecture affects people and their relathionships. The proposal is never final, it´s a living organism evolving with its users. People shape the architecture and architecture shapes the people. In my opinion, good proposal starts with a good story which is just the answer for what is happening around us.

ELEMENTAL ARCHITECTURE

school project, 2015 Brno University of Technology

supervisor: Ing. arch. Jan Mléčka, Ph.D.

Young Architect Award 2016 final nomination

Architecture as a space. Space is all around us. Space as nothing and everything at the

same time.

The perception of architecture in it´s most basic form. Perception of the essence of the space. To define the space the matter is required. In the beginning, natural elements were the building stones of other matters

according to ancient philosophers. Water, air, fire, earth.

Architecture affecting the human perceptions, evoking feelings. A man perceives the architecture, feels it. More important than looking for the answers is to experience them. Elements and senses become the building stone of the space. Perception as the basis of human contact with space, with elements.

Perception as the basis of space formation.

06

explanation of space geometry

Plato assigned geometric solids to the elements - perfect polyhedra. Solids that form the basis of all other geometric solids. The geometry of the elements defining the space in which the elements manifest themselves. Everything looks the same at first glance, but every part is unique, plays a unique role. Only by combining all parts

together creates a whole.

The space is defined by rotating solids around a common center of gravity in all positions in the grid of 120 Polyhedron, which stands for ether, the fifth element spiritually connecting other elements. All solids´ vertices are connected by a single sphere which creates the outer form. There are openings in a place of vertices through which elements act. The matter of rotated solids defines an inner space. The edges of solids determin the position of ramps that connect all vertices. Every ramp enhances the perception of the

element that spatially defines it.

There is no pre-defined place where the elements will manifest. Their site of action, and it´s intensity depends on the surrounding. The element can be perceived alone or in interaction with other elements. The elements are not isolated from each other, they mutually overlap and all affect the perception

of space.

VILLAGE - PEOPLE AND

COUNTRYdiploma project, 2015,

Brno University of Technologysupervisor: Ing. arch. Jan Mléčka, Ph.D.

Back in time, agriculture was a way of living in rural regions and influenced the Slovak culture as well. However, socialistic collectivism ment a big hit for little farmers. They lost their relationship to agriculture and that was the beginning of decay. Many cooperatives left abandoned, poorly used, meaning an estetic problem and barrier for future village development. Villages have lost an economic and social meaning and people are pushed to travel daily to cities

for work, culture, leisure activities...

The project aims to give back the social and economic meaning of village by reusing of cooperatives´ space. One of the problems in village is taken advantage of and gives village what it lacks. Closed space is transforming into space used by all inhabitants, without any matter of age or

interests.

What makes the village a real village are the people and their relationships. Everything

else depends on them.

16

transformation

Old abandoned or poorly used cooperatives are transformed into space which all inhabitants can use. First of all, the rural microregion of several villages is supported. As far as there are many cooperatives abandoned in Slovakia, the proposal aims to affect as many as possible. The project doesn´t focus on one particular village. It starts in one but then it moves to another and then another. In the end, the net of spaces is created out of the old “socialistic memorials” which finally disappear from villages.

Numbers of activities are proposed to meet the people needs. Community center, craft workshops, food processing manufactories, shops... All of these activities rely on each other, without operating separately. Each activity supports the other.

People start to interact with each other more. The spirit of village wakes up. People care about their neigborhood, surrounding, nature as they spend together more time.

Since people can find the wide spectrum of activities in their village, the need to travel to the city is not as strong as it has benn before.

18

PHASE 0 PHASE 1 PHASE 2 (temporary)The location of cooperative is usually at the edge of village, as there was a need to reduce the smell. As the time passed, the village spread till it reached the cooperative. Nowadays it act as a barrier for village development.

Abandoned or unused cooperative objects are demolished, since any attempt to reuse the space wouldn´t meet the economic, technical and hygienic demands. Only the foundations and site networks are used if possible.

The debris is used to create a platform which unifies the space and flattens the terrain differences. The platform prepares the space for future building activities.

Shipping containers are placed on the platform. They act as a business incubators providing necessary space for people´ business intentions for a time of three years.

The other aim of the shipping containers is to find out the necessary space for future permanent buildings.

The advantage of shipping containers is they are easily movable to another cooperative as they fulfill their purpose.

The basic zoning is (from the village side): community space + shop; craft workshops; food processing

PHASE 3 PHASE 4Shpping containers are moved to another cooperative. They are replaced by permanent buildings. Steel prefabricated construction allows them to rise quickly, with minimum downtime for little businesses.

Shipping containers disappear from rural space as they were just temporary phase.

The cooperative disappears. Potential agricultural production moves to another village within rural micro-region.

The space doesn´t act as a barrier anymore and village is able to develop through this former boundaries.

BETWEEN CITY AND NATURE

school project, 2015, KU Leuven Gentco-author of urban design: Lotte Van den

Heuvelsupervisor: Erik Van Daele, Maarten

Gheysen

Site is on the edge between landscape and built area. There are two factories currently. The task was to design a project for the situation when factories are no longer working and the whole site is abandoned.

Belgium is densely built-up country so there is not many plots left which are big enough to construct new economical programmes. Urban area is densifying and residential programmes are approaching the economical ones.

The main goal of the project is the connection of natural landscape and built-up area which consists of residential and economic activites.

To design a functional space where people live, work and recreate, the main focus was the in between zones. Creating the transitions so the spaces can exist separately and together at the same time.

26

1. Present situation with the factory and the city. Future vision: factory is abandoned and disappers from the site.

4. Green public spaces connecting different activities.

6. Work & live. Housing in touch with economic activites.

2. “Green belt” connecting the city with natural landscape

5. Semi- undergound parking making the neighborhood a car- free zone.

3. Rain water collection in the main axis.

NEW AT OLDschool project, 2014,

Brno University of Technologysupervisor: Ing. arch. Jan Mléčka, Ph.D.

Project is located in the historical city centre of Brno, also well known as “Bronx”. It is not a typical neighborhood of the city, it has its own specific character because of temperamental inhabitants. The urban structure is not formed by usual city blocks. Houses are concentrated around the inner courtyards. There used to be an economic activity from the street side and

family housing in a calm courtyard.

These two facts supported the idea of creating the city within a city. The set of structures of different volumes sharing a common courtyard which becomes a connecting element. Mainly residential function with additional economic programme on the ground floor consists of different adaptable typologies to meet

demands of wide range of people.

The concept is about sharing spaces, being in contact with neighbors and taking care of the community living while still having the portion

of privacy.

32

Lot of poor and socially segregat-ed people live in the neighborhood. New projects and recontructions are planned for the future so the standard of living will rise. The concept has to deal with present situation while con-sidering the future development of the area.

Facades and staircases do not split the street and residential space, but rather serve as a gradual transition between the public and private space.

The situation in neighborhood doesn´t support the idea of publicly opened space. The concept counts on creat-ing a common courtyard that commu-nity of inhabitants would take care of.

Flats become part of the street and the courtyard through balconies and opened communications. The contact between the resident is growing: flat- balcony- terrace- courtyard. The bal-cony has various forms depending on position of movable sunshade panels.

The staircases and lifts are placed in between the individual objects. They are part of a semi-public space, so residents do not feel anonymous as in the case of enclosed corridors.

Disposition is a result of the residents’ needs. Individual rooms are defined using partition panels. Residents de-cide themselves where the partition is placed, whether the flat is open or di-vided into rooms. The flats can change their arrangements and sizes depend-ing on the number of household mem-bers.

ABOVE LAKE, UNDER THE CATHEDRAL

school project, 2013, Brno University of Technology

supervisor: doc. Ing. arch. Gabriel Kopáčik Dr.

The parcel is located in very heart of city centre of Brno, right under the historic gothic cathedral and above old catacombs, which are flooded nowadays.

Concept respects all valuable buildings, places and elements of its neighborhood. The aim is not to compete with them but highlight them, support their proximity so the people can feel the historic spirit of this unique city district.

Therefore, the programme is selected to serve wider range of people. Caffe bar on the ground floor and more intimate spaces of underground, with renovated catacombs are used by the gallery.

The form reacts to the main human flow. Old parcel´s walls which acted as a barrier are replaced with ramps so the people can move freely. Ramps formed by sloping the building´s roof serve as the extension of interior spaces of caffe bar and gallery. Historic neighborhood can be sensed not only from the exterior but also from the interior, through several openings.

ON THE ROAD2017

New Zealand

Minimal space, maximal experience. Living simple, having as little as possible. Spending the most of the time outdoors and coming back to the shelter as an ancient nomad. Shelter as a space providing all the necessary things for living. Protection against the bad weather, space for sleeping, eating and storage. To feel safe and comfortable, one needs not only the basic functions of the space, but easthetics to become pleasured by being present in the

space.

So I decided to convert the old van into my new home for travelling. To have the space as I desired and needed, with a design that I liked.

Firstly I removed everything redundant. Then I installed the insulation and covered it with wooden planks from shipping pallets and light MDF boards that I painted white as a contrast to the wooden finish. Everything horizontal has a wooden finish and everything vertical is white. In the end, the carpentry work on furniture. Firstly the framing and then covering,

drawers and doors. When everything was done I started to explore.

ISLAND120 hours competition, 2014

co-authors: Bc. Lukáš Kvaššay, Bc.RadekFeňo

The task of the competition was to create an icon fort he Øya festival in Tøyen park, Oslo.

Øya means Island. We reflected the name of the festival into design of an independent object with various activities so people can enjoy the festival from different perspective and atmosphere.

The idea was to create an object which would rise from the spirit of the festival. Generally, the festival combines a music and movement of the people. Therefore, we used recycled CDs, which are becoming less and less important nowadays, as a facade and transformed movement of the people to power the object. The festival is just about the people thats why the icon can only exist with a presence of the people, they are creating the icon.

In the end the icon represents a symbol of the music, people, movement and sustainable approach of reusing what we don´t need anymore.

SQUARE IN CESKA TREBOVA

competition, 2014co-authors: Ing. arch. Štěpán Vašut,

Ing. arch. Radka Vilímová

A town square is an open public space used for community gatherings. The place is surrounded by buildings commonly found in the heart of a traditional town. Several significant buildings can be found in neighborhood, such as church, town hall, theatre etc.

The character of current New Square is very difficult to grasp. It lies on the boundary between park, square and untidy parking area. It doesn´t offer many reasons to stop by and its potential stays untouched.

In the proposal we create a square in the true sense of the word. Space which can be used by people of all age categories. Places with different characters supported by landscape architecture. Recreational park, playground, market place, caffe bar.

The idea of market as a multifunctional space is ment to act as an impulse for significant recovery of the area with surrounding buildings.

location: Ružomberok, Liptov region, Slovakia

Project is located in Liptov, region of Slovakia well known for its sheep and cattle breeding and traditional cheese and milk production.

Natural surrounding with close proximity of the forest and creek led to the concept of overlapping the architecture with natural landscape. The object is becoming the part of the landscape and vice versa. The architecture digs into the hill and hill covers the architecture with greenery on the roof.

In the history architecture in Liptov was usually formed by materials given on the site. Therefore we followed this way of building and chose natural materials typical for the region, wood and stone.

Horizontal form is designed with respect to the surrounding, so the nature stays in dominant position and architecture acts as a supplementary element.
