Architectural triptych in Bigovo: Residential unit Bigovo 3, Bigovo, Montenegro, authors: Verica Krstić, Vasilije Milunović, Jelena Ivanović Vojvodić

Abstract

The Bigovo complex is an architectural unit consisting of three buildings in the village of Bigovo on the Montenegrin coast. The buildings were designed by architects Vasilije Milunović, Jelena Ivanović Vojvodić and Verica Krstić. The architecture of the complex is an example of contextual functionalism. The buildings are organically unified with the terrain and vegetation, and their form and composition naturally develop from the environment. The authors have created a discreet modern interpretation of the traditional architecture of the area. The complex is open towards the sea, and the internal organization enables each room to have maximum openness.
