The new Student Residence Pavilion, together with the two existing dormitories, forms a public square which is a part of the entrance sequence to the Osijek campus, a developing student city.
The extensive program and unambiguous design guidelines resulted in a longitudinal volume – dimensions comparable to those of the famous battleship Potemkin.
The idea of building a new bus station in Osijek was created in 2007, when the city of Osijek published an invitation to tender for the construction of a new bus station in Osijek on the principle of public-private partnerships. The tender required high quality architectural, and an economically best solution, in terms of construction cost, maintenance and usage. We, the renowned Croatian architect’s office Rechner Ltd. from Osijek, were hired by one of the greatest Croatian construction companies “Osijek Koteks Inc.” from Osijek, and together we won the tender previously mentioned.
