Founded in [[Established::1997]] by [[Matija Bevk]] and [[Vasa J. Perović]], [[Bevk Perović Arhitekti]] is a multiple-award winning architecture office based in Ljubljana. Well known for its big public housing projects as well as for its broad-mindedly designed private houses located around Slovenia, the office also garnered international recognition by gathering awards and winning several competitions and commissions abroad. The works by Bevk Perović often sport a slightly reserved feel, though paradoxically this doesn't prevent them from usually being very outspoken buildings.

Of their more notable recent ventures, one might mention their plan for the upcoming [[National and University Library]] building, the 2017 constructed ''Islamic Centre in Ljubljana'' and the [[Situla Building]], a striking mixed-use block built near the main railway station in Ljubljana. Besides designing buildings, they occasionally collaborate with the contemporary lighting manufacturer [[Vertigo Bird]]. This particular enterprise also got them praise as well as awards.

The firm's most renowned architectural projects include several larger (mostly non-profit intended) housing incursions, most of them in various neighbourhoods of Ljubljana (throughout the years they were, for example, commissioned to design three separate quarters just in the Polje district). Their ''Nove Poljane housing'' project earned them the [[Plečnik Award]] in 2007 and their ''Sotočje housing'' in the city of Kranj was nominated for the Mies van der Rohe award in 2011.

The office has also garnered international recognition by taking awards and winning several competitions and commissions abroad.

Work

The firm's most renowned architectural projects include several larger (mostly non-profit) housing incursions, most of them in various neighbourhoods of Ljubljana (throughout the years they were commissioned to design 3 separate quarters just in the Polje district). Their Nove Poljane housing project earned them the Plečnik Award in 2007 and the Sotočje housing in the city of Kranj was nominated for the Mies van der Rohe award in 2011.

The Student Housing at Poljanska cesta, at the edge of the Ljubljana city centre, is another well-received project, and one of several education-related works designed by the firm. Other such works include the Ob Rinži Elementary School in Kočevje (Piranesi Award winner 2003) and the Faculty of Mathematics, the University of Ljubljana (awarded the Mies van der Rohe Emerging Architect Special Mention, 2007).

Private houses and villas are the standard fare of Bevk Perović, with several highly visible projects receiving praise from both experts and the general community: the Prule apartment building (a stack of 3 open-plan apartments in Ljubljana) (nominated for the Mies van der Rohe award in 2017); the Royal Netherlands Ambassador's Residence (nominated for the award in 2004); and their House D project (presented in the video below).

Construction on a new art museum designed by Bevk Perović in Wiener Neustadt, Austria, was completed in 2019. The extensive project involved the restoration of a medieval fortress, to which an outbuilding and a multi-purpose exhibition hall were added. It was not the firm's first foray into art-related structures, having renovated Ravnikar's Moderna galerija (MG) in Ljubljana in 2009.

Awards

Bevk Perović's most prestigious award to date is probably the Mies van der Rohe Emerging Architect Special Mention, which the firm won in 2007. In Slovenia, the pinnacle of excellence is represented by the Prešeren Foundation Award, which was bestowed upon the firm for their achievements in the 2002–2004 period.

Other awards include the Kunstpreis Berlin – Förderungspreis Baukunst (2006), several Plečnik Awards and Prizes (the most important architectural award in Slovenia), the Golden Pencil Award and the Piranesi Award. Bevk Perović has also won numerous prizes at competitions for designs, with some of their projects awaiting completion.

In 2009, their collaboration with lighting manufacturer Vertigo Bird (the Slim Model light) earned them the Red Dot Design Award.
