An exhibition about the changes in Brno, the rise of industry, the emancipation of the provincial capital, modern architecture, the effects of the war, but also about nationalisation and socialist urbanism and industrial decline after the social changes of 1989. On display are panels with short texts and lesser-known images, large-scale photographs, models, student projects, video and real equipment from textile and machine factories.

The exhibition is also a retrospective depicting the results of teaching industrial buildings and their conversions at the Brno School of Architecture. Since the end of the 1970s, the course has been led by Professor Helena Zemánková - hundreds of students have passed through her studio during that time, some of whom have become leading professionals in the field of industrial buildings.
