BACK TO COMPETITIONS

 

Aim of the Competition held in 1984 was to select the best urban conception and spatial plan solution for urban development of northern Mostar. Entire professional public took wide interest in this project that was the biggest and the most important competition in Urban Plan solutions after the one held in Osijek. All professional teams and experts in this field from ex Yugoslavia participated in this competition.

 

Team of authors; architect Marin Kresic and architect Vesna Stefanovic took the second prize at this competition. By decision of City management shortly after this competition was finished, urban concept presented by these authors was accepted as the final urban solution for development of Northern valley of Mostar.

Plan was further developed by authors with cooperation of Institution for Urban development from Mostar and their expert team.

 

The main reason why this Urban plan solution proposed by these authors was accepted by Mostar professional, expert and non-professional public, was morphological concept that the Plan implied, with highlights on tradition, history, authenticity and individuality of the region as well as Mostar city itself and it proposed models and ways for urban development that were realistic, operational and achievable.
