Belgrade Fair Hall Redesign Serbia
Avala Tower, Belgrade
Original construction: 1965 (destroyed in 1999)
Rebuilt from 2006 – 2010.
Height: 204.68m
Design: Uglješa Bogunović and Slobodan Janjić
The Avala Tower, located near Belgrade, Serbia, is a striking example of modernist architecture. Originally built in 1965 and rebuilt in 2010 after being destroyed in the 1999 NATO bombing, the tower stands 204.5 meters tall. Its design is characterized by a tripod structure, tapering upwards with a hexagonal cross-section, reflecting both stability and elegance. The tower’s base is anchored by three massive legs, creating a unique silhouette and providing structural resilience. It features an observation deck offering panoramic views, embodying a blend of engineering innovation and aesthetic simplicity, making it an iconic landmark in Serbia.

Kadinjaca Memorial Complex, Uzice
Built: 1979
Design: Miodrag Živković
The Kadinjaca Memorial Complex near Užice, Serbia, is a poignant example of Brutalist architecture infused with symbolic meaning. Designed by sculptor Miodrag Živković and completed in 1979, the complex commemorates the Workers’ Battalion that fought in World War II. Its architecture features bold, angular forms and stark concrete structures that evoke the struggle and sacrifice of the battalion. The layout is a linear progression, guiding visitors through various elements, including massive stone blocks and sculptures, culminating in a central obelisk. The use of raw concrete and stone emphasizes the memorial’s solemnity, making it a powerful and evocative site.

Tupalla Mosque
The main design approach for Tupalla Mosque was to create comfortable functional and spiritual space for the small Albanian Islamic community with a minimal financial cost. This strategy pushed us to be very modest starting from the dimensioning of whole volume of the building up to its construction materials.

Beko Masterplan Belgrade
Sweeping organic masterplan, typical curvilinear style of Zaha Hadid Architects currently. The context is an ancient Serbian castle, wouldn’t it be intriguing to see ZHA actually work on a historic site rather than always adjacent or on greenfield locations?

Its architecture, of remarkably modern language, does not clash with or overshadow its neighbouring buildings’.
