Contents
Overview
Oris appears two-monthly since 1998 and covers the mediaspace of Croatia, Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The texts are written in Croatian and English. The handled topics cover the whole width of architecture. The introduced projects display the international cross-section with an emphasis on works from the region. Additionally to architecture in a separate section topics on art in general are shown. For example Photography or Event-art, often with illustrations of the connections of those with the conventional understanding of the term "architecture".
It is pleasing that the advertising is concentrated in a section on the beginning of every issue, not disturbing the flow of reading.
The publisher Arhitekst also organises the annual 'Oris-days'. These are very popular to the architects of the region, as they are recognized for the mandatory further training ordered by the Croatian architectural association. It is also a rare chance to meet colleagues from all over the country. The sentence Man, I haven't seen you for ages is said to be the most spoken one. It is a two-day symposium with lectures from architects from all over the world.
