Article source: A2OFFICE The architectural project for this house was born simultaneously from a void and from a dance: the unbuilt space of the patio separates and unites the two volumes that make up the intervention and that seem to want to communicate through a dance. The house sought to create a relationship of dialogue, not only with the urban front in which it operates, but also with the immediate surroundings. Taking into account that this is an area in a process of constructive and use transformation, the basic premise was to design the building in relation to the pre-existing buildings, but also, and above all, to endow it with characteristics that would allow it to dialogue in the future with new neighboring constructions, something that was confirmed, since new contiguous buildings appeared in the meantime.

Article source: Dans arhitekti The Grosuplje Cultural Centre is an iconic building that elegantly complements the town’s architectural image. Its design is clear and attractive, in order to be the cultural home for everyone, locals and guests. The form and the materialization of the building give it a strong visual character, establishing the new architectural identity of Grosuplje, which is recognizable on the local and on the international scale. We analysed the history of the town and thus developed our architectural strategy: what the new cultural center means for the town, what potentials it opens up, and what will be happening in and around it. The festive brick façade creates a specific contemporary architecture with regional expression: it reflects the particular character typical of the town’s existing public buildings, such as the library and the health center. The square and the lobby of the Cultural Centre form the living room of the town. The direct visual connection to the open and illuminated space of the foyer makes the interior of the Cultural Centre a part of the city ground floor. The large and the small halls are arranged in the ground floor around the foyer. The tower that rises above the square houses the music school.
