The project creates a representative environment for the Jewish community in Teplice. The history of the location is a main source of inspiration, since there used to be a majestic synagogue until 1939 when it was burned down. The design itself consists of four buildings above ground – a synagogue, an administration center of the Jewish community, museum and kosher restaurant, all of which are based on the same underground building with parking. Under the synagogue there is also mikveh - a ritual bath with sauna. The community center with lecture hall is located next to this base and is connected on the same level. Architecturally, the buildings are organized into a square shape on the common underground base depending on their function. Used façade materials are stone dark grey cladding. The synagogue differentiates both in shape and material. It’s exterior surface symbolises the history of the location and used fragments of the stone base of the lost synagogue. The synagogue itself is covered with golden ceramic glass surface cladding. The golden details also spread on the surrounding buildings in the form of decorative grating by the windows.

The topic of my diploma thesis is the architectonical study of the new synagogue of Frýdek-Místek. The plot contained the original synagogue in the past, which was, like many other synagogues in Czechia, burned down by the Nazis. The only memento to the original synagogue left was the Jewish school. Its frontage was however stripped of all architecturally valuable elements and therefore lost all its historical value. For this reason, in the scope of this thesis, I have decided to tear down the old building and create a completely new complex, which will comply with the requirements of the Jewish quahal, with regards to architecture and utilization of the object. I’ve designed a monument, consisting of simple stone blocks in place of the old, torn down synagogue. The stone blocks mark the location of the outer walls of the original synagogue.

The diploma project handles the design of the synagogue and other buildings of the Jewish community in Frýdek - Místek. The project is formed as an architectural study. The complex of the Jewish community includes, in addition to the synagogue itself, a kosher restaurant, which is characterized by a specific cooking convention, as well as a Jewish gallery, a library and the administration of the Jewish community. The whole complex is complemented by an underground car park. The area is located close to the border of the historic city center. The land is not monotonous, in some parts it is relatively flat, in others it is sloping. It is bounded on the north by a blind road and on the south by road II. class on Revoluční street. At present, the territory of the former synagogue is unused and neglected. The idea of the design is based on simple principles of basic geometric shapes - circle and square. The circle is a symbol of heaven and eternity and the square is a symbol of earthliness and transience. The symbolism of numbers is also applied in the proposal, especially "1" - a sign of unity, indivisibility, as well as God; "2" - number of opposites - heaven and earth; "3" completeness and stability. From the compositional point of view, it is a line of 3 blocks of the same base and height, while one of them is fitted with a cylinder, which is the tallest of all objects. This results from the Jewish tradition. All objects are designed on a platform that symbolizes the ascent to the Temple Mount. The above mentioned functions are divided into separate objects. A uniform architectural language is chosen for all buildings. The principles of construction and layout of individual buildings differ according to their operation.

The subject of the diploma thesis was the elaboration of an architectural study of the new synagogue in Jihlava in the newly reconstructed park with the monument of Gustav Mahler. The assignment was the design of a new synagogue, premises for a Kosher restaurant and a Jewish community building. All functions are the subject of a solution on a relatively small built-up area in the place of the original burned Jihlava synagogue. The basis of the proposal was to create a dialogue between two buildings of the synagogue and the Jewish community. Between these two objects is located a kosher restaurant as a connecting element. It infill the gap site - moat and at the same time connects the space between the objects using the park on its roof. Buildings of the Jewish community and restaurant are connected by an underground car park with arrival from the south. The proposal consists of three buildings with separate functions. In the synagogue is a prayer hall with a female gallery, sanitary facilities and mikveh. The restaurant building is designed in the style of a separate kosher kitchen. The Jewish community provides administrative facilities, community facilities, teaching facilities, a registry room, a small community library, and an small apartment of property administrator.

This architectural study concerns designing a new synagogue in the city of Frýdek-Místek. In 1939, the original synagogue was burned down and subsequently demolished. The venue is currently known only from historical map records. Besides designing the new synagogue, the construction program also includes a kosher restaurant, an administrative space for the Jewish community, and a ritual bath Mikveh. The developed concept for the new estate is based on the functional needs of the individual parts and the estate's historical context. The design for the synagogue itself is based on Jewish history, culture, and symbolism.

The presented diploma thesis was elaborated as an architectural study of a new synagogue in Brno according to the assignment. The goal of the thesis was to design the architectural proposal of the synagogue as well as of the new centre for the Jewish community and Jewish museum. The Jewish community in Brno is a closed community. The aim was to create a place for members of the Jewish community which would be separated from the public space. The proposal is divided into two parts, the museum with public space and the buildings of the Jewish community. The Jewish community area consists of the kosher restaurant, offices, library, community hall, mikveh ritual bath, synagogue and garden. The suggested structural organization enabled to separate public space of Jewish museum from the internal private area for the Jewish community while keeping the overall integrity of the venue.

The presented diploma thesis was elaborated as an architectural study of a new synagogue in Olomouc according to the assignment. The goal of the thesis was to design the architectural proposal of the synagogue as well as of the new centre for the Jewish community and Jewish museum. The final proposal is two buildings connected by a courtyard. The synagogue is designed on the same place where the original synagogue stood. Part of the building for Jewish community is mikveh ritual bath, kosher restaurant, community hall, library and offices. The Jewish museum is partially recessed below ground level and covers an area beneath the synagogue and the courtyard. Shielding the building from the bustling Avenue is solved with park proposal. The entrance to the underground garage with 32 parking spaces is from the street Lafayettova.

The presented diploma thesis was elaborated as an architectural study of a new synagogue in Olomouc according to the assignment. The goal of the project was to design a synagogue, new place for the Jewish community of Olomouc and Jewish museum on the site of original burnt synagogue. The concept was based on an effort to restore dialogue between private and public (openness vs. closeness of Jewish community) and to connect the individual functions and create a closed functional unit to fulfil the needs of Jewish community, however, also communicate with the public. The complex contains kosher restaurant, museum of Jewish culture, administration, library, community hall, educational room, kosher grocery store, mikveh the ritual bath, chapel and the garden. The block is divided into three buildings connected each other by colonnade and courtyard which opens to adjacent public square but at the same time is protected from the bustle of the main road.

The diploma subject was to design a new synagogue, jewish community centre and kosher restaurant in Gustav Mahler Park in Jihlava. The new synagogue respects location of the foundations of the former synagogue. The buildings are arranged to create elevated square, where people can rise up to synagogue which was inspired by rising up to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Water reflecting pool is designed above the foundations of the former synagogue to create water reflections on the facade and interior of the new synagogue. The new jewish community centre take care of the whole jewish community in Jihlava. The jewish garden in atrium of the jewish community centre serve as a place to celebrate jewish holidays. Kosher restaurant is designed for the public and jewish community in Jihlava and creates atractive place to enjoy free time at Gustav Mahler Park with the view towards historical city walls and the Gate of Holy Mother.

The architectural study deals with the design of a new synagogue in Trutnov, located on the site of the original synagogue, which was burned down in 1938 during the so-called Crystal Night. Currently, the area is a place of reverence, as a reminder of this historical event. The concept works with this idea and develops it further by adding other functions of the Jewish community - kosher restaurant, the Jewish community centre, and the mikveh. Due to the site location between two historical neoclassical buildings, the grounds should look humble and non-conflicting. The concept of the site is based on the needs of each individual functional unit and on the historical ties in the area. The concept of the synagogue itself is derived from the history of Jewish culture, its connections and mostly symbolism. Also, the reference to the original burned down synagogue is taken into account.
