About OHS: “Architecture must not be closed in its own world, it must be open to the general public and encourage discussion about space. This is what I see as the central mission of the Open House Slovenia festival, which every year offers the interested public the opportunity to enter and directly experience a wide variety of quality architectural practices. Architecture is not just walls, architecture is the space in between, it is the life that takes place in these spaces.”
