Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia Address Dimiceva ulica 13 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia http://www.gzs.si/eng/ . The Chamber of Commerce and Industry, whose task is to promote the movement and flow of capital in the Republic of Slovenia, is conceived as a "megastore". What was involved in this project was the rehabilitation of the institution's offices housed in a strictly rationalist lowrise building, and the addition of a series of semi-public amenities (restaurants, library, lecture rooms, exhibition areas, archival reading room). Project attempts explicitly to do away with any barriers between the public, semi-public and private features which are all present in this hybrid design. By retaining the huge public forecourt, the programme along the existing building is verticalized, thus giving it a new façade, designed like boxes piled on top of each other. Fitted between the two fronts, as if the public forecourt had been suddenly straightened, is a vertical hall, espousing the principle of continuity and interaction between the two parts of the programme. photo: Hisao Suzuki .

Arcadia Lightwear Office and Exhibition Building Address Trzaska cesta 222 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia photo: Hisao Suzuki . The path for visitors and guests through the public grounds of the office exhibition building Arcadia lightwear is conducted in eight sequences, which differ in time span and manner of effect they have on the visitor. Why conductance? Almost like in a movie, all elements effecting senses and stimulating certain experiences like volume, space orientation and inclination, material treatment, light and sound intensity - are planed in sequences. On his way through the building, the visitor experiences eight different effects in eight different sequences: approaching the building - floating of the black box effect; entrance - depth effect; entering reception room - light towers effect; in the reception room - 900 seconds of the Arcadia lightwear effect; approaching the gallery - photocell effect; the gallery - 90 seconds of the Arcadia lightwear effect; on to the terrace - fusion of natural and artificial light effect; terrace - effect of openness and airiness. .

Dom-Müller Department Store Address Copova ulica 40 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . The Optical Wall of the Dom/Mueller department store main façade is a smooth vertical surface. Its optical effect changes with the angle and the distance of viewer's perception thus attracting his glances. The optical effect is also subjected to varying sunray exposure. On a cloudy day or on a clear day afternoon the interference between the inner and the outer glazing and the texture of the solar shades defines the image of the façade. The interference on a blue-white surface mollifies the boundary between the sky reflection and the image of the buildings facing it. The reflections are at its peak on a clear day at noon, bringing about a feeling of dematerialized façade. In the night time the optical effect is reversed: due to illumination the presence of the wall is mainly felt in the surroundings and through the wall layers we can observe the sales offers inside the department store. photo: .

Mercator Shopping Centre Address Industrijska cesta 6 5000 Nova Gorica Slovenia http://www.mercator.si/en/ . Circulation - technical block of the Mercator centre in Nova Gorica is a soft container placed in the redesigned warehouse halls. All vertical communications (escalators, two staircases, lifts and freight elevators), technical utilities and air conditioning are placed in a block. All customers leaving the parking lot pass through the block on their way to the shopping centre. Within the block, there is an attractive interior area wrapped with the Matrix Enfolder. The structure of the Matrix Enfolder must have the ability to assume the diversity of the exterior and the interior conditions. The Matrix Enfolder is thus a unified system which undergoes local modifications due to the conditions imposed on the interior or exterior side. Like the vacuum packing of merchant goods where the wrapping assumes the shape of the product thus reducing its volume, so does the the design of the three etaged technical-communicational block gravitate towards reduction of used inner space. photo: Hisao Suzuki .

Drogerie Markt Address Litostrojska cesta 48 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . Business and warehouse premises of the DM cosmetic chain will inhibit the renovated business and warehouse premises of the former fork-lift factory in the Litostroj industrial complex. The generic office building is separated from the warehouse building by a long narrow space in between, transformed into a reflected patio. This is where a deformed reflection of the façade "superstudio" grid, surrounding the office building, appears on the reflective wall of the warehouse building across the patio's hanging garden. Unchanging, abstract grid, completely disguising the proportion of the building, becomes the background for the changing events within and around the building. The grid, being neutral, intensifies the perception of changes: a break on the patio, work in the office, at day and night, seasonal changes in nature around the building. Even the slightest change becomes noticeable thanks to the neutral character of the grid. photo: Hisao Suzuki . Project is not public! . . . . .

Fountain Solkan Address Trg Jozeta Srebrnica 6 5250 Solkan Slovenia . The fountain lies on red asphalt in the centre of the square. The surrounding mountains and the river generate the shape, placing and waterflow over it. It measures 9m in length, 3.75m in width and it is 1.75m high. It is formed by two binding concrete shells. Water is sprayed on it from a nearby waterspout. It flows over the concave surface, looses its power and drifts over the convex surface into the gutter. The water creates diffraction and reflection of light. The sound of water is constantly present. The water covered surface twinkles before your eyes. The landscaper assigns landscape characteristics to the scale of an autonomous object. The fountain waterflow is much alike the river flow over similar relief - the landscape. The landscaper simulates activities of the visitors in the manner of the surrounding nature. You can sit on the fountain brim. You can lean on the wet surface of the fountain to soak your back. During rain showers you can hide beneath it. photo: Hisao Suzuki . Project is public! . Completion 2001 Architect Client Sadar Vuga Arhitekti Local community Solkan Contributed by SADARVUGA . . .

Tus Shopping Centre Address Kidriceva Ulica 30 3000 Celje Slovenia http://www.tuscc.si/O-nas/Poslovne-enote#celje . Large shopping malls - to which, following the Euro-American example, various entertainment, sports and business facilities come to be attached - are being built everywhere in Slovenia. Most of these structures could hardly be considered architecture if architecture is understood as something more complex than four walls and a roof, whose sole purpose is to provide an enclosed space. There are, however, exceptions. This building, located on the approach road to Celje, is constructed of prefabricated concrete elements and has a large, metal-clad roof that folds over the enclosed space. The roof appears to hover, an effect that is enhanced by its variable thickness, and gives the building an expressive, sculptural character. And yet the roof's size and shape can be justified in pragmatic terms: on one side it has to cover a parking area, on another side a pedestrian side walk, which requires a shallower overhang, and on yet another side a loading area, requiring deeper shelter again. photo: Miran Kambic .

Library Address Adamiceva Cesta 15 1290 Grosuplje Slovenia http://www.gro.sik.si/ . This new public library is in fact an extension to the existing library which is one of the last remaining good-quality 19th-century buildings in Grosuplje and as such treated as an extremely valuable piece of architecture. The old building underwent extensive renovation, but the architects' focus was on the new structure, which is only loosely connected to the old one. They decided to 'mirror' the volume and gently re-shape it into an appropriate structure. The central function of the library is visible on the outside as the building 'opens up' towards the main street like a book. The vertical alternations of glazed and closed surfaces -glazed towards the old building and closed towards adjoining apartment blocks- make it look filigreed yet solid. The building 'catches' dispersed natural light through the skylights on the zigzagging roof, as well as from the vast glazed façade sections. The library is not just a centre of information, it is also important as an 'urban intensifier'. photo: Miran Kambic . Project is public! .

Hotel Sotelia Address Zdraviliska Cesta 24 SI-3254 Podcetrtek Slovenia http://www.terme-olimia.com/si/namestitev/sotelia/ . Slovenia offers great potential for spa and thermal bath architecture. Unfortunately, Hotel Sotelia represents one of the few good examples, while most hotels boast glitz and kitsch. Located between two existing hotels, Sotelia clearly distances itself from the built environment and connects, instead, with its natural surroundings. Dean Lah & Milan Tomac's primary concern was to avoid an immense building mass, like the one suggested in the client's brief, which would have blocked the last remaining view of the forest. And so they broke that unit up into small units arranged in landscape-hugging tiers. As a result, the four-storey, 145-room building appears much lower and smaller than this description would suggest. Inside the hotel, although the interior does not trumpet 'architect-designed', many elements, like the bamboo-encased columns, were in fact designed by the architects. And it is these columns - tree trunks by day and pillars of light by night - that attract the traveller. photo: Miran Kambic . Project is public! .

The Gradaska apartment building is located in a rather odd zone, poised between Ljubljana's city centre and the protected rural enclave of Krakovo. Like a giant ice cube reflecting its surroundings, the fragmented nature of the area is reflected in its internal organization, too. The twelve apartments are far from the standard single-storey affair. Spatial differentiation was achieved by stretching the living room to double or one-and-a-half height. These vertical spaces are embraced by either an extremely open loft-type layout or a more conventional layout with separate bedrooms. Within the closed shell of the building, the apartments interlock like pieces in a three-dimensional version of a Tetris game. On the unusually flat façade - deliberately free of balconies - the primary role is reserved for glass. The vast glazed surface is a combination of reflective and transparent glass which imparts elegance and hardness, but also provides the façade with an almost tactile quality. .

House SB Address Pot v Smrecje 28A 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . Located in a suburban settlement on Ljubljana's outskirts, House SB is not at all a typical Slovenian single-family house. The architects opted for a patio typology with two wings on different levels framing a small garden area. While the house opens welcomingly towards its surroundings, its street face is almost standoffish. But unlike traditional houses, House SB is not hidden from curious passers-by behind a fence. Instead, the house itself is designed as a fence that keeps street life at distance. The light-filled living area in the upper wing is an open loft space that contrasts with the seclusion of the bedroom area below. At the intersection of these two overlapping volumes one can appreciate the complexity of the house. A rigorous use of materials (the whole house, including pitched roof and terrace, is clad in larch wood planks) and lack of decoration give the architectural concept its strength. Everything unnecessary has been omitted leaving the surfaces smooth and abstract. photo: Matevz Paternoster . Project is not public! .

Social Housing Address Polje 371-376 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . Faced with a serious shortage of housing and outrageous free-market prices, the Slovenian government has introduced a national housing policy, financed from the Slovenia Housing Fund. The Slovenian housing industry is not yet ready to experiment; commercial forces are still inclined to stick to tried and tested models rooted in the collectivist imagery. That was especially the case in the Polje social housing project on the outskirts of Ljubljana. Dealing with the existing and outdated urban project for six separate villa blocks placed on a rigid grid was no easy task. But Bevk Perovic arhitekti accepted the restrictions as a challenge and changed the space in between the housing blocks, since radical changes to the existing urban plan were not possible. They introduced a small park with a children's playground, making the landscape part of the housing scheme. Private-public interchange continues on open hanging balconies which act as spatial extensions of the interiors. photo: Ivan Ilic . Project is not public! .

Apartments On The Coast Address Livade 6310 Izola Slovenia . This apartment block in Izola, Slovenia is part of the national social housing scheme. Since 30 apartments were for sale the budget was extremely tight. The construction costs of the non-profit block were 600 euros per square metre which translated into 1250 euros per square metre selling price. Rok Oman of Ofis architects conducted a masterly study of the floor plans. A modular scheme was applied within the given contours of the block, resulting in optimum use of space and a maximum net saleable surface area. Collective spaces were reduced to a minimum to keep the square metre price low. After solving the internal layout, Ofis turned to the external appearance. The balconies were transformed into semi-closed loggias wrapped in colourful awnings that act as sun shades. This playful optical game transforms the block into an impressive design object, causing controversy among locals and professionals alike. The balconies give the block a unique identity, almost like a brand. photo: Tomaz Gregoric . Project is not public! . . . . .

House D Address Šaleška 2a 3320 Velenje Slovenia . On the topography of the steep ground of this location, five construction strips with different cladding fillers create four different exterior fronts of the House "D". First: an abstract front with strips, which closes the view towards the east. Second: a Californian front, with a bold console of the ground house. Then a Provanse front, where the house opens towards the pool, terraces and green surroundings. The fourth front of the house is a local one and it creates the relationship between neighboring houses. All the above-mentioned fronts pass on from one to another with interlocking, where two fronts merge without loosing their own adjacent character. A cinematic sequential experience is therefore created. The House "D" is implemented into a very generic Slovenian semi-rural suburbia. It creates an ambiguous, soft relation to typical double-pitched roof, not-too-big-windows and at-least-one-balcony houses in its direct surroundings. photo: Hisao Suzuki .

Condominium Address Trnovski pristan 22 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . Condominium is a two-floor apartment building with 15 individual apartments, common entrance lobby, interior winter garden and exterior summer atrium. Its basic volume is agitated, partitioned and non-monolithic, which allows for optimal illumination of all apartments and a connection of interior area with the exterior through greater greened terraces, consoled balconies and winter gardens. The balconies extend far away from the building, towards the circumferential garden. The partitioning reaches its peak by the composition of façade surfaces made of pixels of multi-colored ceramic tiles, and pre-dimensioned black metal frames, which link Blown-up Windows and balconies of orange wood. photo: Ramon Prat .

The House Zvezda is the first apartment building in Nova Gorica with its own garden, underground parking, attractive façade with French windows and balconies, and penthouses with terraces in the attic.Its architecture and design assure identification on three levels to its residents: my house 'Zvezda House, my garden' the common house garden, and my apartment. The garden of the building is designed between the crooked shapes of the building, the Prvomajska Street and the street on the southern side of the location. The garden represents the common place of the residents to socialize and relax outside the building. The game of the "windows" and "balconies" openings with emphasized frames on the colour-neutral façade background will become an easy-to-remember image of the House Zvezda and its trademark from the Rej?eva Street and the Prvomajska Road. photo: Miran Kambic .

Panoramic Garden of CCIS Address Dimiceva 13 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia http://www.gzs.si/eng/ . Panoramic Garden of Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia project presents the first structural and programmatic intervention into the project already realised by our office. The large summer banquet terrace is to be glazed and extended into the current VIP room. Thus we formed an inner interior winter garden, where a spatial ribbon carries the troughs and baskets with lush tropical greenery, where from one can enjoy a magnificent view of the city centre. Besides the vertical executive business and club rooms it also represents the most attractive interior space in the CCIS. It may be characterised as a new type of the business and club room that is intended for events such as ceremonial receptions, award-granting ceremonies, banquet luncheons as well as for meetings of extended management team. The green ribbon also enables the partition of the space into several micro-ambiences that may be used according to the type of event and the number of participants. photo: Zare Modlic .

Dom-Müller Department Store, BTC Address Smartinska cesta 152 1000 Ljubljana Slovenia . The Dom/Müller BTC building is located in a reconstructed storage hall in the BTC commercial center. The Optical Wall of the store is the smooth even surface of both side facades that curve into two parts of a frontal façade adjacent to the highlighted main entrance to the store. Its optical effect changes according to the angle and distance of the observer and as such attracts the eye to observe the wall. The Optical Wall's effect is achieved by the ratio of three elements: the print on the glass panels. The zone of air between the panels and the thermal isolation which also houses the lighting, and the strong orange colour of the isolation. The major factor of the Optical Wall's effect is the white print on the panels that with its pattern simulates a curvature of the surface. It seems that the façade is in a waving motion, even though it is a thoroughly even surface. When the sun shines against it, the effect is stronger because of the shade that the print casts on the isolation. photo: Ramon Prat . Project is public! . . . . .
