The subject of the diploma thesis is the elaboration of project documentation for the construction of a multifunctional house. The building is located on a building plot of parcel number 2176/15 in the cadastral area of Stará Boleslav. It is located in the northeastern part of the cadastral area. The terrain of the building plot is flat and currently the plot is covered with grass. It is a built-up area in which the development of apartment buildings predominates. The designed multifunctional house is spread over four floors. On the first floor there are three surgeries with a preparation room, facilities for staff and clients and communication areas of the building. The first floor is designed as barrier-free. There are six apartments on the second and third floors. On the fourth floor are designed two apartments and a walking terrace. The underground part consists of technical facilities, storage space and 13 parking spaces.

The master´s thesis deals with the design of a new multifunctional building for a newly proposed development in the city of Brno. The concept explores the possibilities and forms of modern city building should look like and how to approach the proposal with the absence of a context.

The diploma thesis deals with the development of the vacant lot in Prague - Libeň at the PCB level. A multifunctional house is designed, which includes three establishments and eleven housing units. The premises will be used as shops. The apartments are designed for 2 to 4-member families. Multifunctional house floor plan with a total area of 683.1 square meters. The building has a basement with five floors, the premises are located on the first floor. There is a pedestrian and driveway to the building. Behind the object away from the main road is an outdoor parking lot. The underground garage will be accessed by a car elevator. The whole building is covered with a sloping roof. The project is processed using the computer program AutoCAD.

THE AIM OF THIS DIPLOMA´S THESIS IS A NEW BUILDING OF A MULTIFUNCTIONAL HOUSE IN UHERSKÉ HRADIŠTĚ. THE BUILDING HAS THREE FLOORS AND ONE PARTLY UNDERGROUD FLOOR. THE UNDERGROUND FLOOR IS USED AS A STORAGE SPACE FOR THE BULDING‘S USERS AND AS A TECHNICAL SURROUNDINGS OF THE FACILITY. FIRST FLOOR IS USED AS A COMMERCIAL PREMISES, AS A BOULDER CENTRUM, COFFEE HOUSE AND SALES. THERE ARE SEVEN APARTMENT UNITS ON EACH FLOOR 1+KK, 2+KK, 3+KK AND 4+KK. OVERALL THERE ARE FOURTEEN APARTMENT UNITS, ALL FLATS ARE DESIGNED IN THE SAME WAY ON EACH FLOOR. THE WHOLE BUILDING IS ALSO EQUIPPED WITH A LIFT, IT IS A MASONRY BUILDING MADE WITH YTONG SYSTEM WITH CAST-IN-PLACE REINFORCED CONCRETE CEILING AND A FLAT GREEN ROOF. THE CONSTRUCTION ITSELF FITS IN THE SURROUNDINGS OF THE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT.

The thesis aims to create architectural and urban proposals for the use of selected parts of the Stare Brno.

"The urban environment serves many roles. It would also be such that we remember them and looking at them, feel pleasure. "[Kevin Lynch] The proposal deal with the multifunctional building near the city center. The place is located on the pass company Kras . The overall design is based on the analysis and planning studies prepared in the previous semester. The main idea is to make the function part of the city, which will primarily serve residents of the city. A place that is pleasant to meet, for recreation, relaxation and active leisure. Instead of living as well as services, commerce and administration. Instead of a vibrant life where it will be easy to navigate and enjoyable stay. The building is trying to combine the advantages of living downtown housing in the countryside. Town house should be lively. Everywhere something is happening, people stop, where to shop and spend time here. Living in the countryside provides plenty of privacy and tranquility. The proposal is currently trying to combine these advantages. The result is a house that provides plenty of features and incentives to meet and have sufficient facilities (garage). But it also offers a private area surrounded by greenery and overlooking the city features. The architectural appearance of the building seeks to reflect its main function - to provide "living"house. It also seeks a characteristic and easily remembered building in connection with quote Kevin Lynch (see above). This creates a compact three-storey compound in services and garages, which are then apartment buildings with flats of different sizes, each with a balcony or a garden that allows for contact with nature. Loggia are designed in bright colors and add vibrancy and playfulness of the building.

My suggestion is trying to return to the receptive urban spaces, pedestrian trying to return to center stage, allowing them free movement and return them to healthy urban public spaces. But it also does not deny the need for transport, restrict it, but based on her wishes.

The project of revitalisation of the Ambit area in Český Krumlov emerges from the current needs and the future strategic visions of the town as well as from its historical context and cultural heritage. It proposes a natural and simple cultivation of the grounds and their transformation into a park and riverside promenades creating an agreeable background for the pedestrian paths joining the downtown with the housing areas in the suburbs. This environment creates a set for a multifunctional cultural and community centre. The historically protected building, originally a cloth factory, is transformed into a hotel with a restaurant and connected to two new objects of the cultural centre. In their volume and location these buildings don’t exceed the maximal height level of the surrounding area and respect its natural configuration as well as its historical value. Both houses correspond not only in terms of materials but also in their simple conception free of all unnecessary formalities. They are not trying to compete with the town and its genius loci; on the contrary, they attempt to create a dignified entrance wordy of the town. Their floor plan creates a coherent space with a certain amount of tension created by the very not-orthogonal arrangement.

Changing weather patterns challenge societies globally and at multiple levels related to amongst others health, the environment, disaster management and mitigation. There is a need for greater flexibility and resilience, which in turn can be enabled through a transition towards increased sustainability in governance and infrastructure. Urban rainwater harvesting (URWH) is a term used in this paper to collect various approaches to the sustainable handling of rainwater in cities, a practice becoming increasingly common in some areas of the world. Global experiences can be useful learning opportunities in the planning, implementation and maintenance of sustainable urban rainwater harvesting in future smart cities. The aim of this thesis was to synthesize the factors of success of previous projects, in order to develop a framework tailored to the evaluation of projects concerned with rainwater harvesting. The review spans over 18 projects of different scale and design. The findings of the study show that successful URWH projects are: (1) found as part of urban renewal schemes; (2) successfully implemented by involved actors with open mindsets and flexible and collaborative working approaches; (3) maintained based on plans determined from the onset of the project, developed together with local actors, in order to involve the community and strengthen social inclusion. The revised evaluative framework, which is proposed as a result of the review, indicates general trends of success among the reviewed cases. To be fully operational, the framework should be further developed with additional URWH projects and revised thereafter.

In recent years, nanostructured materials incorporated with inorganic particles and polymers have attracted attention for simultaneous multifunctional biomedical applications. This thesis summarized three works, which are preparation of mesoporous silica coated superparamagnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4@mSiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) as magnetic resonance imaging T2 contrast agents, polymer grafted Fe3O4@mSiO2 NPs response to temperature change, synthesis and biocompatibility evaluation of high aspect ratio (AR) gold nanorods. Monodisperse Fe3O4@mSiO2 NPs have been prepared through a sol-gel process. The coating thickness and particle sizes can be precisely controlled by varying the synthesis parameters. Impact of surface coatings on magnetometric and relaxometric properties of Fe3O4 NPs is studied. The efficiency of these contrast agents, evaluated by MR relaxivities ratio (r2/r1), is much higher than that of the commercial ones. This coating-thickness dependent relaxation behavior is explained due to the effects of mSiO2 coatings on water exclusion. Multifunctional core-shell composite NPs have been developed by growing thermo-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylamide) (P(NIPAAm-co-AAm)) on Fe3O4@mSiO2 NPs through free radical polymerization. Their phase transition behavior is studied, and their lower critical solution temperature (LCST) can be subtly tuned from ca. 34 to ca. 42 °C, suitable for further in vivo applications. A seedless surfactant-mediated protocol has been applied for synthesis of high AR gold nanorods with the additive of HNO3. A growth mechanism based on the effect of nitrate ions on surfactant micelle elongation and Ostwald ripening process is proposed. The biocompatibility of high AR nanorods was evaluated on primary human monocyte derived dendritic cells (MDDCs). Their minor effects on viability and immune regulatory markers support further development for medical applications. / QC 20110701
