Prenova tipičnega blokovskega stanovanja iz sedemdestih let / Renovation of typical block apartement from the seventies

Block settlements in Slovenia, constructed between 1960 and 1990, account for 39% of the country’s building stock. These apartments were built economically and to standardized designs, but due to their age, many are now in poor condition, with some even abandoned. Revitalizing these apartments could play a significant role in addressing the housing crisis and preventing urban sprawl into green and agricultural areas.

We recently completed the renovation of a smaller apartment in a block built in 1977. The project included a full upgrade of electrical and plumbing systems, along with a slight redesign of the floor plan. All furniture was custom-made to maximize the efficient use of space while ensuring a comfortable living environment for the young couple moving in. This renovation showcases how thoughtful updates can breathe new life into aging housing stock, making it suitable for modern living.
