Peroutka memorial Prague, CZ, 2022 competition proposal |
Ferdinand Peroutka as a constant. Unchanging through budding spring and blooming summer. But also exactly like that, in the decline of autumn and the gloom of winter. At first glance, the artificial tree sculpture doesn't stand out much in the park. It is only when we look closer and listen carefully that we notice it: at a sufficient distance from the strange tree, we hear quiet voices - archival recordings from Peroutka's time and period broadcasts of the Radio Free Europe alternate with current radio news from Czech Radio Plus, which follows on from RFE. It thus transfers Peroutka's conviction about the free availability of objective information to the present, to the public space, and thus to everyone equally. In collaboration with Vojtech Radakulan |

White Plastic Pragovka gallery Rear, Prague, CZ, 2020 group exhibition |
White plastic represents a tool for achieving simple, effective, economical, yet at the same time trivial results when creating visualizations in the virtual environment of rendering software. In this rendering software, each material has its physical attributes set to imitate real material – for white plastic, it is a white plastic material with colorful and reflective parameters R220 G 220 B 220, fresnel IOR 2.0, and reflection glossiness 1.0. The exhibition perceives the white plastic phenomenon as a symbol of uniformity and sterility as well as a default basis or simplicity. The collective of architects, artists and curatos contains of Petr Bureš, Sára Davidová, Markéta Jonášová, Kateřina Kulanová, Vojtich Rada and Jan Vybíral. For more see >> PRAGOVKAGALLERY |

Keepers of the Palace of Seeing etc gallery, Praha, CZ, 2020 exhibition architecture |
Lea Petříková's show in the ect gallery presents two pieces examining the medium of film, its elusiveness of capturing the fictional and the limits of mediated perception. Exhibition architecture draws on the movie set double sidedness. For the two videos in the exhibition, two diverse environments are being created: a dark stage set, inviting the viewer to the fragments of the mythical mountain of illusion, and its other side, the back of the scene, exposing "the forest" - the background of the fictional - to the street.

The concept for co-operative shops Trefa and Terno Borovany, CZ, 2020 commissioned competition |
An exemplary design of a new concept for shops Terno and Trefa of co-operative association Jednota Ceske Budejovice. Enlarging the shop's area by moving the entry to its original position in the building enables moving of the high racks from windows to space, therefore reopening the shop display windows. Simplified facade with build-in benches reflects on the shop's position within the city center square, its interiors emphasize the hit of Trefa and Terno shops - over-counter sell of fresh local products. Staff attire design, merchandise products, and customer home-delivery service were presented as part of the architecture concept. |

The Tenth Plan for Barrandov Prague, CZ, 2018 |
Where does space lie for a new urban plan of discontinuous areas, that have already been examined by nine unrealized plans? Furthermore, can a new plan include change as the main design parameter? The Tenth Plan responds by reduction and changeability. It drafts a scenario extending into the far future, beyond the termination of the territory's denominator: film studios. Based on a map of local and wider centers and placed on historic routes, it specifies three major acceleration points in the ideologically uncharted area along the most important traffic barrier. Points are deliberately designed to avoid the architecture's time specificity by hosting film landscapes. Their function and volume are a compromise between the interconnected city structures: physical or metaphysical. |

Cottage Desná u Litomyšle, CZ, 2018-20 under construction |
The cottage is hidden in a steep slope below the main road. Built-in and of the rock of local marlstone, so the interior faces increased humidity. This parameter strongly affects not only the new construction of the floors but also the appearance of the self-supporting staircase. Old fashioned living room with tiled stove and large dining table were complemented by minimalist kitchen made of solid wood with fine details. Newly inhabited attic with exposed construction is deliberately conceived as a unified space welcoming the rhythm of its magnificent rafters. The roof windows are replaced by a newly glazed door to the hay from the yard and a new elongated window in the base of the truss, which visually connects the interior happening on the slope of the small garden. All elements respect the age and personal history of the house - by rearticulating the old without copying it. |

Interier of flat in Stallichova Praha, CZ, 2019 study |
An apartment for a young family on the lower ground floor of a linear development from the '50s. Emphasis on natural lighting and sufficient storage space, clear functional zoning, and differentiation of areas for movement, work, relaxation, and sleep is inscribed mainly in the continuous space of the entrance hall, kitchen with dining and living room. The furniture block partially divides the hall and common family spaces minimizes corridor space while bringing enough light to the entrance hall. The concealed sliding door allows quiet reading by the window to the shared garden as well as evening movie screenings. The design of the rooms with large built-in wardrobes offers free space for the concentrated work, play, and sleep for all four members of the family. |

Lost in Survival Prague, CZ, 2017 |
Exhibition proposal made for 15 Costa Rica Survival workshop projects in collaboration with Peter Bureš for UM gallery. "Discomforts, nature, heat, humidity and a group, composed the world that was for us, Europeans Y, so unfamiliar. We decided to play the game of survival in the Costa Rican jungle, explore and describe an exotic world, every one regarding its own limitation of "risking own life". One of the most important topics was survival, but real survival research was too dangerous. It was reduced to play, escape from reality, and creating backdrops for its progress. The result was mostly "live analysis", a description of the effort to ignore the unknown, to deal with the situation created by us in an environment that for the fist time dominated us absolutely." |

Utopia Brasilia Brasilia, Brazil, 2016 | structural, social, and technological flexibility. The built-up utopia of city of Brasilia, which was averted further development by UNESCO preservation, and a tendency for the escapism of inhabitants of Brasilia's eagerly expanding adjacent areas, former laborer villages were the two main inputs for further work. Description of levitating society is rather a metaphoric narrative about virtual realities of successors of those, who were once excluded from the earthbound utopias, then an actual architectural design. |
