Ljubljana, June 2025 – The DARS Grič office building project, built in 2025, has been awarded the International Architizer A+ Award Winner in the Sustainable Commercial Building category. The award acknowledges the project’s outstanding contribution to the development of modern and sustainable commercial architecture and is an important recognition of Slovenian expertise, design and execution.

The buildings designed and built over the last 80 years, since the end of the Second World War, can be broadly divided into two main groups. The first includes buildings where the load-bearing structure is retreating from the edge of the building envelope into the interior, and the second includes buildings where the building envelope […]
The expert jury of the Slovenian Chamber of Architecture and Spatial Planning has included the Stora Enso Promotional Pavilion in Planica among the nominations of the Kranj region for the Golden Pencil Award. The winners will be announced at the Architects’ Day on Friday, 6. October 2023, in Nova Gorica. Being one of the nominated […]
Our expectation is that Stora Enso, also through the promotional pavilion, will be able to convince building developers in global markets to increase the share of biogenic materials in their construction. One of the major goals of the construction of the Nordic Centre in Planica between 2011 and 2015 was to provide Slovenia with a […]
The contemporary restrained self-confidence of urban renewal in the centre of Murska Sobota. Project description:The redevelopment of Slovenske Street – South is the second phase of the redevelopment of Murska Sobota’s city centre. Previously, as part of a wider renovation in 2019, the t. i. Luther’s Alley by the municipal building, on the axis between […]
A mere 400 square metres of paved area was enough to re-establish an important urban axis. Murska Sobota is a flat city that has grown more or less freely over the last hundred years. Growth did not follow a predetermined geometry, but rather the individual urban districts were based on key infrastructure axes, i.e. the […]
Inappropriate, unusual or just a well-considered intervention? For decades, the development of the transport network in Slovenia has been based on the predominance of classical intersections, where roads intersect with relatively simple geometry and without any implications for the design and interpretation of space. The increasingly desirable principle of turning junctions into roundabouts is, like […]
Should a fire station tower be more than just a facility for drying fire hoses and practicing rescue? Slovenian settlements are divided into three key types. The first group are those where continuous settlement, and thus the centrality of settlement formation, can be traced back to the Middle Ages or even further back in history. […]
A landscape-architectural feature between the motorway and Radovljica. With the construction of the deepened section of the Gorenjska motorway past Radovljica, the more or less natural eastern boundary of the town of Radovljica, which was defined by agricultural land of the first category, was psychologically and economically destroyed. The wide green belt created a much-needed […]
The spatial layout of the five small ski jumps has thoroughly interfered with the landscape and topography of the valley area and geometrically regulated all the developments in the centre area. With the second phase of renovation and the construction of additional ski jumps, the Nordic Centre becomes a national centre for training and development […]
