Stories of Slovenian Architecture
The English edition of the book Stories of Slovenian Architecture has been published by Beletrina, authored by architects and writers Špela Kuhar and Robert Potokar.
The book offers an original and thoughtfully structured overview of Slovenian architecture. This nearly 500-page work, subtitled Fifty Stories of Slovenian Architecture Across Time, Space, and Creators, presents the history of Slovenian architecture to readers through stories and photographs.
This engaging book, captivating in its openness and breadth, takes readers on a chronological journey from the pile-dwellers and bridge-builders to 21st-century architecture. Written in an accessible style, the stories carefully weave together facts, curiosities, creators, and historical periods, making it appealing to both professional and general public.
Authors Špela Kuhar and Robert Potokar have long followed Slovenian architectural creativity. Kuhar works as an architect, author, and co-author of books and articles on architecture and architectural education, while Potokar is an architect, head of an architectural office, and a visiting lecturer at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Traffic Engineering, and Architecture in Maribor.
The English edition of Stories of Slovenian Architecture is an excellent opportunity to introduce Slovenian architecture to the international professional community, promote it in a global context, serve as a gift at business meetings, calls, and conferences, and provide inspiring reading for architects, colleagues, and students.
