This year, we are celebrating the 25th anniversary edition of the international architectural festival Days of Oris, which will take place on June 27 and 28, 2025, at the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall in Zagreb.
Organized by Oris House of Architecture, this two-day symposium has, for more than two decades, brought together some of the most prominent international and local architects, urban planners, designers, students, and all those passionate about space, architecture, and the culture of building.
