Studio Tesař–Barla

assistant professor

We want to inspire courage, joy and not to lose our modesty! And all of this knowing that even a master carpenter sometimes makes mistakes.

Our goal is to develop your critical thinking skills. To examine the meaningfulness of the assignment and the relationships of the site. To find a potential or problem that you will highlight or respond to in an essay and then in the proposal itself. During the semester we will collaborate with philosophers and theorists from the Department of Theory and History of Architecture.  We will invite guests from various professions to give partial presentations. Architecture is an interdisciplinary field!

For each assignment, we are looking for an architect who has the building(s) of the given typology in their portfolio. As a "guest of the studio", he/she guides us on a tour of the project and is the main critic during the presentations.

In the winter semester 2026/27 Daria Balejová Bártová (municipal architect of the town of Řevnice, the head of the first-year studio at FA 
na FA ČVUT)

LS 26 Fr. Filip Boháč OP (dominican friar and prior of the Prague monastery, architect)

ZS 25/26 Samuel Netočný

LS 25 Ivan Koleček, Andrea Seelich

ZS 24/25 Jakub Kynčl (knesl & kynčl architekti)

LS 24 Jan Kalivoda a Vojta Kaas (PROGRES)

WS 23/24 Josef Pleskot

SS23 Radek Šíma (Atelier 6)

WS 22/23 Peter Lacko (AL.T.) 

In order to save the energy that critical thinking sucks out of us, we will work with MOLAB teachers to get you to work with BIM tools ARCHICAD and REVIT so that you do not have to think while drawing :-) Well prepared final papers (BP/DP) will get a BIM certificate.
