Lena und Tomaž Krušec, Arhitektura Krušec, Ljubljana
Pictures in Concrete

Arhitekura Krušec
the office was founded by Tomaž and Lena Krušec in Ljubljana in 2002. Later, Vid Curincic joined the team as a third partner. The office has won several competitions in Slovenia and other central European countries, among them Croatia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. The built portfolio covers a wide spectrum of tasks, from interior architecture and furniture design to multi-storey housing, office and research buildings, or a VIP Lounge for the National Football Centre. The work of Arhitektura Krušec is characterised by a search for structural clarity and simplicity in the choice of materials. In recent years, the responsibility of architecture in terms of relating to the site and the surrounding landscape has become a recurrent theme for the office.

Prof. Tomaž Krušec was born in 1972. He studied architecture at the University of Ljubljana and at the Academy in Mendrisio under Peter Zumthor. He worked as an assistant professor at the faculty of architecture in Ljubljana from 1999 until 2009 and since 2010 as a full professor. In 2002 he founded Arhitektura Krušec together with his wife Lena.

Lena Krušec was born in Celje/Slovenia in 1976.  She got her degree in architecture from the University of Ljubljana in 2001 and directly afterwards started working in Arhitektura Krusec together with Tomaz Krušec.

Die Montagsreihe am Mittwoch wird im WS 16/17 von der Wüstenrot Stiftung in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Fachgebiet Architekturkommunikation veranstaltet. Sie richtet den Fokus auf die zeitgenössische slowenische Architektur. Diese konzentriert sich in der Hauptstadt Ljubljana und hat in den letzten Jahren eine äußerst dynamische Entwicklung genommen. Ljubljana, eine Stadt von der Größe Karlsruhes, verfügt heute über eine Vielzahl junger, innovativer Architekturbüros, deren Arbeit international ausstrahlt. Faszinierend dabei ist, dass praktisch alle wichtigen Akteure an der örtlichen Architekturfakultät ausgebildet wurden; Ljubljana soll deswegen als Beispiel einer Architekturstadt untersucht werden, in der sich lokale Verankerung und globale Orientierung in einzigartiger Weise verbinden.
