Ptuj Performance Center - new Slovenian Architecture

Ptuj Performance Center
With its splendid and inspiring past, followed by an unfortunate fate after the dissolution of the fraternity, the renovation Dominican monastery represents a demanding task of great responsibility. For a successful renovation of a historical building, the key is to keep the building in service and strive for the new programme to showcase its historical value, as well as artistic merit.

Novo Mesto Central Market - contemporary Slovenian Architecture

Novo Mesto Central Market
Novo mesto central market lies in the very centre of the historical town core in the immediate vicinity of the main town square. Despite this, it feels somewhat removed today, being separated by its level and oriented towards the low-quality city space.

Podčetrtek Traffic Circle
The Podčetrtek Traffic Circle is built on a regional road. The design of the roundabout’s central island thus references the appearance of both facilities and marks the entrance points to the destinations of the visitors to either of the programme centers.

Ptuj Archaeological Museum, north east Slovenia
Design: Enota
Ptuj Archaeological Museum
This new Slovenian building is designed so as to fill the gap in the natural edge of the town and recreate the green belt along the entire northern edge of the town. The establishment of the contiguous green belt articulates the transition from the old town core by creating a clear divide between the historical and the later urban structure.

Sports Park Stožice, Stožice, Ljubljana
Design: Sadar Vuga Arhitekti
Sports Park Stožice Building
The 187,500sqm complex is located north of the city and combines a football stadium and a multipurpose sports hall with a large shopping centre covered by a recreational park landscape. The park, visibly the largest open space, links the landscape by the river Sava, across the northern sections of the outer ring road, with the green urban space in the city centre.

2 Sep 2011
Theatre Park, Murska Sobota, Slovenia
Design: Studio Kalamar d.o.o.
Theatre Park
The Cinema Park Building was erected in the 1950s from plans by the modernist architect Franc Novak. Slowly falling into disrepair, it was still used for film shows until the new century, when it became obsolete due to the construction of a new multiplex.

Pegan Petkovšek National Gymnastics Centre, Ljubljana
Enota
National Gymnastics Centre Slovenia
The National Gymnastics Centre Pegan Petkovšek is part of the comprehensive renovation of Svoboda Sports Park in Ljubljana. It is the first of the three sports halls that are to be built.

Podčetrtek Sports Hall Building
Design: Enota
Podčetrtek Sports Hall
Due to its size, which greatly exceeds the outlay of traditional constructions, it is impossible to look for similarities with indigenous surrounding architecture. However it seems logical to seek the design resemblances with larger facilities of the thermal complex.

Maribor Project, Pobrežje district
Design: ecosistema urbano Architects
Maribor Project
The site in the Pobrežje district of Maribor contains the municipal waste dumping area, currently in the phase of ecological re-naturalisation and rehabilitation, which will take several years to be consolidated. The architecture office took this temporary feature as the project’s leit motif, since temporary processes are very close to architecture.

MC Murgle office building, Ljubljana
Design: Groleger Architekti
Slovenian office building
The neighbourhood of Murgle is characterized by the predominant use of single-family atrium houses in a green, quiet and traffic separated suburban part of Ljubljana. A distinctive feature of the new part is the dynamic inner division contrasting the orthogonal structure of the existing one.

Microcop Office Building
Design: Groleger Arhitekti
Microcop Office Building
Repeating the horizontal division of the neighbouring buildings the facade shows horizontal layers in two different colours avoiding the monotony of the large glass surface. The east and south facades are covered with a diamond grid, which, like a giant fishing net protects the interior against heat and glare.

Mivka Hotel Resort, Bled, west Slovenia
Design: Enota Arhitekti
Slovenian Resort Building
The concave design of the sections envelops the different programmes and defines the space intended for them. It ensures privacy to the users and prevents the views from crossing with the activities of adjacent programme cluster.
