The Art of Changing Brno

The new main railway station by the Svratka River and the adjacent Trnitá District, growing out of nothing. A road leading to the town of Svitavy. The zoning plan as the most important city development document. Protection from the 100-year flood and, at the same time, the transformation of the waterfront and the first Brno embankment. The launch of architectural, landscape and urban planning competitions for strategic projects. Name the most difficult tasks Brno has had to face in recent years and you will always find the City Chief Architect’s Office at the forefront. Yet this hasn’t always been the case. The Office was only revived in 2016 after a 13-year hiatus. Today, the team comprises over fifty staff members – architects, urban and traffic engineers, social geographers and landscape architects – working on the future of the city.

You will have an opportunity to see the results of architectural competitions, including the winning models. Designed as well as realized transformations of public spaces, new streets or squares. Protection from drought or high water. The development of Brno planned on a citywide scale as well as at the level of the traffic in one street. Life in the city translated into charts and maps used for a better future for Brno. Long-term projects as well as small improvements to everyday life. And finally, the opportunity to cooperate yourself during participative sessions, workshops and discussions.
