The Meander Building by Architect Bruno Milić; The Beginning of Modernism in the City of Nikšić

Abstract

Architect Bruno Milić (1917-2009) designed one of the first multi-apartment high-rise building in the city of Nikšić, the Meander Building, in 1958. Built in a modernist manner with a strong respect for the context, the Meander Building has a characteristic shape that is unique not only in Montenegro, but also further afield. The traditional elements of Nikšić’s city architecture are presented in a new way in the Meander Building without losing its own identity.
