Since being founded by [[Lena Krušec]] and [[Tomaž Krušec]] in [[established::2002]], [[ARK Arhitektura Krušec]] has positioned itself as one of the most acclaimed practices in Slovenia.
As both personal and business partners [[Lena Krušec]] and [[Tomaž Krušec]] founded the architectural office [[ARK Arhitektura Krušec]] in [[established::2002]]; [[Vid Kurinčič]] is a member of the team since 2004. Lena and Tomaž graduated at the [[Faculty of Architecture, University of Ljubljana]], where Tomaž later worked as an assistant, and since 2010 holds lectures as a Professor. Today Arhitektura Krušec is one of the most acknowledged Slovene studios, presenting good practices in contemporary and sustainable architecture, collecting prestigious prizes, and gaining international recognition – the New market in Celje was selected among 40 projects for the ''2010 European Prize for Urban Public Space'', the Farewell chapel at Teharje cemetary was nominated for the ''2009 Mies van der Rohe Prize''.

Despite its compact size (only four architects), the team embodies best practices in contemporary and sustainable architecture and has developed a reputation for skillfully managing the relationship between man-made structures and natural environments.

Though in many ways restrained, works by Arhitektura Krušec rarely fail to attract attention.

Its design follows the tectonic layering of the terrain, with the exterior of the house coloured the same shade as the rock below it.

The studio's renovation of Linhart Hall at [[Cankarjev dom, Cultural and Congress Centre]] earned them the prominent [[Plečnik Award]] in 2013.

In 2010 the Arhitektura Krušec received the prominent [[Plečnik Award]] for the new [[Faculty of Biotechnology, University of Ljubljana | Faculty of Biotechnology]] building. The award is bestowed annually by the [[Plečnik Fund]], that grants also Plečnik Medals – in 2007 the office received the Plečnik Medal for the building of Alpine hotel ''Celjska koča''.

Granted annually by the [[Chamber of Architecture and Spatial Planning of Slovenia (ZAPS)]], the Golden Pencil Award was conferred to the team also for the mountain hotel ''Celjska koča'' (2007). In 2005 the Arhitektura Krušec won the [[National Design Awards | Interior of the Year]] title for the Pilates Centre on Wolfova ulica in Ljubljana centre.

Since being founded by Lena Krušec and Tomaž Krušec in 2002, ARK Arhitektura Krušec has positioned itself as one of the most acclaimed practices in Slovenia.

Despite its compact size (only four architects), the team embodies best practices in contemporary and sustainable architecture and has developed a reputation for skillfully managing the relationship between man-made structures and natural environments.


Background

The studio heads studied at the Faculty of Architecture in Ljubljana, graduating under the mentorship of professor Aleš Vodopivec. Tomaž continued his studies at the Accademia di Architettura di Mendrisio (CZ) and is now himself a lecturer at the faculty in Ljubljana.

Projects

Though in many ways restrained, works by Arhitektura Krušec rarely fail to attract attention. Their acclaimed House on Golo project (2015), for example, successfully integrates a raw concrete facade with green and flowing natural surroundings. Its design follows the tectonic layering of the terrain, with the exterior of the house coloured the same shade as the rock below it.

Their National Football Association Headquarters project (2016), made in cooperation with Studio AKKA, demonstrates a similar approach with a completely different outcome.

Other works that have brought the studio acclaim and prestigious nominations include the Farewell Chapel at Teharje Cemetery (nominated for the 2009 Mies van der Rohe Prize) and the new market in Celje (selected among 40 projects for the 2010 European Prize for Urban Public Space and shortlisted for the 2011 Mies van der Rohe Prize).

Another prominent work marked by a synergy with nature is the Celjska Koča Alpine Hotel. The building is cleverly integrated into the exposed natural plateau at the foot of a ski run.

Awards

Several works by Arhitektura Krušec have received the Golden Pencil Award: the House on Golo (2016), the Farewell Chapel at Teharje (2008), the Celjska Koča hotel (2007) and the Skalne Vile apartment building in Celje.

The studio's renovation of Linhart Hall at Cankarjev dom, Cultural and Congress Centre earned them the prominent Plečnik Award in 2013. Though the hall was almost completely redone, the team interestingly decided to respect the existing design of its renowned author Edvard Ravnikar, to the point that the two designs are nearly identical.

Arhitektura Krušec also received the Plečnik Award for the new Faculty of Biotechnology building in 2010. The project was also nominated for the 2011 European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture and the Mies van der Rohe Award.
