Urban and architectural workshop Križevci, Ljutomer

Abstract

In the academic year 2011/2012 the students of the Faculty of Architecture with their mentor Tomaž Krušec conducted an Architectural and Urbanism Workshop at Križevci pri Ljutomeru 2011/2012.The workshop was organised by the Municipality of Križevci pri Ljutomeru. Students considered different locations in the town of Križevci pri Ljutomeru. The main problem was the organisation of the main town square located between the church and the town hall. The main road running through the town divides the square into two. The students were given the assignment of siting a new cultural centre in the square, and arranging the square to reestablish the connection between the two parts of the square visually and physically.The students also designed a series of buildings that would ensure the long-term development of the town, but which would also continue the centuries-old tradition of the area in which they are located.
