We undertook the renovation with all available knowledge and knowledge about the building and its history. Before designing the renovation, we worked closely with doc.dr. Neža Lipovec Čebron, who prepared the “Study on the development and importance of Hotel Koper”. We sought to retain the building and its original idea, and to reawaken the significance of the building and its role in social and cultural terms. Our wish for this hotel is to become a place for socializing and meeting everyone, not only guests, but residents of the wider coastal area. In this we see the transfer of the historical idea and the role of the building forward. Our goal was to open the main street promenade and offer its ground floor to local and other visitors, and to establish a “living room” in this part of Koper.
