On Thursday, May 9, 2024, the closing event of this year’s Open House Slovenia festival took place in the Edvard Gallery in Ljubljana, featuring the awarding of prizes to selected architectural projects presented during the OHS architectural festival, which was held from April 12 to 14 across the country.<\/p>\n

Voting for the architectural projects presented at the festival took place from April 12 to May 5, 2024. Visitors to OHS festival 2024 had the opportunity to view more than 70 architectural projects at the festival and vote for the best project in the categories of Public, Social and Business\u00a0Projects<\/span>, Housing\u00a0Projects<\/span>, and for the first time, Wood<\/span>\u00a0Projects<\/span>. The OHS festival is based on a simple concept that allows everyone to connect with and personally experience quality architecture. Guided tours, led by architects, conservators, engineers, owners, investors, and contractors, enable visitors to gain a comprehensive understanding of the creation and significance of each architectural work.<\/p>\n

The OHS Award has been awarded since 2019. It is not a traditional architectural award given by a selected professional jury to experts in the field of architectural design. The OHS Award is given with the aim of encouraging maximum public participation in understanding and deciding on selected projects. All the buildings presented in the festival program are approved by a professional jury, while the general public and visitors cast their votes for the project of their choice. Thus, the OHS Award is given to the team that collectively created each project \u2013 architects, engineers, contractors, clients, and investors. The role of every individual is of utmost importance in the project \u2013 moreover, all participants must understand what constitutes a quality space and jointly adhere to this idea until the project’s completion. Compromised and unprofessional solutions often remind us for a long time of the consequences of prioritizing the shortest execution times, particular interests, and the lowest costs.<\/p>\n

The multifaceted nature of the OHS Award is particularly important to highlight today from two perspectives \u2013 the award is voted on by the general public, who are the users of the space and for whom the architecture is ultimately intended. In addition to architects, the OHS Award also recognizes the significant roles of investors and contractors who care about and understand the importance of spatial culture for the development of the community both today and in the future.<\/p>\n

Bla\u017e Budja, a member of this year’s expert jury, emphasized the importance of community in today’s society, which is increasingly inclined towards individualism. He believes that with the Open House Slovenia festival, we elevate general culture and give architecture the opportunity for greater, broader communal understanding and respect.<\/p>\n

“The OHS festival is not a world championship in architecture; it seems that here, despite everything, the individual gives way to the collective. Moreover, participation is important, and the victory is shared. The OHS Award is thus the only award given by the people. Only in this way can architects lay down the burden of proving their expertise through the lens of seeking the social significance of their profession.<\/p>\n

I believe that with the Open House Slovenia festival, we elevate general culture and give architecture the chance to uplift its creators, architects, from the unfortunately quite negative general perception today of someone who is just there to ‘handle the paperwork.’ Clients, who are important stakeholders in the process of creating architecture, are brought to a state of calm and satisfaction.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
