The Faculty of Architecture has published students' studio works online
Prague – This year, the studio works of students from the Faculty of Architecture at ČVUT were exhibited online due to the coronavirus. People can view nearly a thousand designs of houses, landscaping projects, and various objects. Some reflect experiences from the pandemic. ČVUT spokesperson Andrea Vondráková informed about this in a press release.
According to Romana Vylitová from the faculty’s external relations department, there are currently 921 studio projects in the gallery, developed during the past summer semester in 56 school studios. She emphasized that these works are the most important, time-consuming, and prestigious showcase of the study, during which students utilize their "theoretical arsenal" from lectures.
"The largest representation, a total of 646 projects, comes from the architecture and urbanism study program. Within studio assignments, students each year deal with locations throughout the country," said Vylitová. In addition to Prague, this year the creators "searched for" architectural and urban solutions, for example, for Kladno, Dobrovovíz, Zdiby, Prachatice, Opava, or Cheb. Some projects also concern foreign locations. "For instance, there is a fire station for Vaduz in Liechtenstein or a hangar for an airship in the scientific research settlement of Ny-Ålesund on the Norwegian Svalbard islands," Vylitová noted. In addition to residential and family houses, students worked on designs for a primary school, a sports center, or a multipurpose building on Rohanský Island in Prague. Landscape architecture students modified, for example, the former cemetery in Dresden or the monastery park in Kladruby near Stříbro.
The coronavirus crisis primarily influenced the works of young designers. In addition to "traditional" assignments, such as various home accessories, new projects included a touchless dispenser for disinfectants in public transportation or a handle for opening doors with the forearm.
"Students also designed and developed objects with which one could spend quarantine leisure time in an educational, creative, and fun way. In the electronic gallery, they are showcasing over twenty different board games, construction sets, puzzles, and brain teasers," added Vylitová. The phenomenon of smart cities has inspired projects such as air quality monitors and electric vehicle charging stations.
