DANS ARHITEKTI

In our office, DANS arhitekti we create spaces and culture in which we live, work, feel and socialize with each other. We are consciously exploring the relationship between people and built environment, we think about innovative ways of using the space and at the same time drawing from archaic building principles, exploiting the opportunities opened by sustainable construction, and the possibility of creating pleasant livable spaces. No matter if we are designing urban public spaces or facilities with focus on engineering and technology, large spaces with heavy flow of people or intimate ambiances we try to create different moods through use of nuances and careful details.

DANS arhitekti was set up in 2004.

Our works have received numerous awards.
