Jan Pekař among the winners of the Buildings with the Smell of Wood 2023 competition
A graduate of the Faculty of Architecture, Jan Pekař won the award for his diploma thesis from this year entitled Space for Life in the competition Buildings with the smell of wood in the category of large wooden buildings. The mission of the student competition, which has been launched by the Wood for Life Foundation since 2005, is to promote wood as a domestic renewable raw material for everyday use, thereby protecting our non-renewable resources for future generations.The Space for Life thesis is devoted to the issue of healthy living in the gaps in the city of Brno. Due to urbanisation and denser housing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find suitable environments for healthy living. This work, therefore, attempts to find solutions for designing houses, layouts and interior furnishings that promote healthy living, even in these challenging conditions. Overall, the thesis addresses current issues such as lifestyle diseases and major lifestyle changes caused by the development of modern technology, to which our dwellings have not adapted.
