Author Description

The countries in Central and Eastern Europe have undergone far-reaching economic and social changes over the last 15 years. This makes way for new conditions for new living spaces. In the economically flourishing state of Slovenia, which became a member of the EU in 2004, architecture production has developed with great optimism but also with a discernible bit of concern. Questions concerning the maintenance of the quality of life and the identity of cities, villages and landscape planning are of great interest at the moment. Slovenia’s new architecture is taking a new approach to these problems and receiving great international recognition. The book discusses around 30 projects built over the last 10 years and includes descriptions, photos and plans. The projects include administration and office buildings, as well as educational and residential buildings.
