Since 2008 the House of Architecture (Hiša Arhitekture) operates under the auspices of the Chamber of Architecture and Spatial Planning with a mission to promote architecture through exhibitions, lectures, and related cultural and educational activities. The space is located in the atrium on Vegova street and at first consisted of a small exhibition space 70 square metres in size. The later-added supporting premises wrap up the space into a functional whole.

Programme

Architectural exhibitions focus on the work of ZAPS members, while lectures vary from educational on sustainability, building materials, and new legislation, to presentations of interior and lightning, and film projections. In 2010 a series of architectural workshops for children "Architecture and Children" were organised in cooperation with various architectural studios, naming only the Arhitektura Krušec, AKSL Arhitekti, MultiPlan Architects, and Ravnikar-Potokar Architecture Bureau. These workshops are a great contribution to educating children about spatial issues, and are therefore continuing in 2011 also in Maribor, Nova Gorica, and elsewhere.
