Hello. My name is Pavlína Sedláková and I come from the Czech Republic. While studying my Master degree in Architecture at Aalborg University in Denmark, I am looking for an academic internship. This portfolio aims to portray myself - my interests, skills, and knowledge which I can use in my future carrier. I learned from every single experience, constantly forming my opinion on architecture. Therefore, selected projects are presented with focus on their key elements, often concerning humanity, environment, and technical aspects.
FOCUS ON...
DWELLING & DIVERSITY

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE Cigler Marani Architects http://www.ciglermarani.cz/ summer 2014
Internship at internationally recognised company provided me with priceless insight into real big scale architectural practise.
Architectural Design Studio 2H http://atelier2h.cz/ autumn 2013
Collaboration on professional architectural competition equiped me with decisive skills necessary for short-term project completion.
INTERESTS I have deep passion for travelling, meeting new people, enjoying national cuisines, experiencing real life of locals. When I am at home, I enjoy experimenting in kitchen. To refresh my mind, I love to do various sports - both team and individual.

People are different, in different periods of life with different needs. Likewise, the building itself has to react to different contexts. Dwelling upon these premises, this project is based on variable and repeteable principle of development for various users and locations. Diagrams show two examples of project application. Layouts are designed as independent elements, all fitting on top of each other. Therefore, potential delevoper is free to decide which and how many floor he wants to use depending on surroundings and target user group. Square shaped footprint allows situating both as solitaire or grouped on a plinth, always preserving good indoor environment.

To be true professional, an architect must understand the constructional principle of his design. Only this ability allows him to succeed in today‘s race for economic and environmental friendly development. Firstly, this project has been designed during standard Design Studio Course; secondly, it has been finished with static calculation, building physics evaluation, and microenvironmental engineering.

STATIC CALCULATION
ACOUSTIC EVALUATION MY CONTRIBUTION TO THE INTEGRATED DESIGN PROCESS
STATICS According to the tectonic principles, structure ought to be honest, clear and functional. To achieve this, certain level of understanding structural behaviour has to be reached. Final solution consist of two interrelated systems, mutually supporting each other. For this reason, structure keeps its simple and noble appearance.
LIGHT Number of studies revealing light conditions both in interior and exterior have been performed. The analyses focused on three main aspects - outdoor areas designed for gathering, daylight factor for classrooms and offices, and light as architectural element in churchroom.
ACOUSTICS Inherently, church is a great place to study potential of acoustics and its impact on overall character of the place. General principles of physics, graphic acoustics, and detailed software analysis have been used as a design tool for making informed decisions throughout the whole design process.
