Zero-energy buildings need to generate some of their own energy to ensure carbon neutrality. The integration of a solar power plant into a building envelope is a major architectural challenge. Project description:With this project, we have tried to combine our own visions of a sustainable society and a sustainable company of the future, based on […]
Finding the relationship between the past and the future – between sustainability and profit. By amending the municipal spatial plan in 2016, the Municipality of Ljubljana relaxed the urban planning conditions for building in the previously relatively conservatively protected areas of the Rozná dolina, Tabor, Mirje, lower Bežigrad and lower Šiška. The potential level of […]
On days and moments when I am neither outside nor inside. Architecture is all-encompassing and can understand the world in its own dimension of social relations and personal experiences. Consequently, when faced with the simple questions of the expansion of an existing residential building, which involves above all highly pragmatic and utilitarian problems, we can, […]
Cross-connected apartment from Ljubljanica to New Square. Project description:The architect’s hidden ambition is that he could gradually, according to his own beliefs, first build one building, then a whole neighbourhood around it, followed by the planning of the city, which would expand into the cultural landscape… Jože Plečnik claimed that architecture is present everywhere, from […]
The apartment is a series of explorations, tiny surprises that chance visitors merely encounter, while its everyday users establish an intimate spatial relationship with them. Designing the interior of a dwelling in a modern existing building is a relatively thankless, yet extremely challenging task for architects. We are confronted with another architect’s spatial design, which […]
In interior design, we are more interested in embodying the right experience, both for those who work there and for those who come for meetings and conversations, than in finding the optimal image. The renovation included four existing premises of the administrative and technological company in Krško. The division into a secretariat and two members […]
A special feature of the space is a wall of 200 concrete cylinders surrounded by a back-lit wall of light. Miloš Bonča, an educator and architect, was able to say that the prerequisite for any architectural excellence is a sincere and constructive collaboration between the client, the architect and the contractor. If one of the […]
Current urban planning and economic principles are holding back the design of high-quality and sustainable residential neighbourhoods. A quick survey of the major apartment buildings that have recently been built in the city centre and its immediate periphery makes us sceptical and aware that current urban planning and economic principles are holding back the design […]
The Mediterranean feel is completed by the placement of three regionally distinctive “terraced houses”, which rest gently offset on a grey base. The Portorož Riviera is the best Slovenian approximation of what has been looming over the Côte d’Azur in the south of France for more than two hundred years. The steep slope, intertwined with […]
The key to the success of the spatial interpolation into the historic city centre is its thoughtful design of the building body. The prominent corner position at the western entrance to the old town centre of Kranj was dominated for decades by the Hotel Jelen, the most representative hotel in Kranj before the Second World […]
