Today we are presenting the next Expert who will join us in October - Bostjan Vuga from SADAR+VUGA, Ljubljana, Slovenia. Bostjan Vuga graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in Ljubljana (1992) and continued his post graduate studies at the AA School of Architecture in London. In 1996 Jurij Sadar and Bostjan Vuga cofounded architectural office SADAR+VUGA. Over the past fifteen years it has focused on open, innovative and integral architectural design and urban planning. The office has been driven by a quest for quality, with a strong belief that forward-leaping architectural production contributes to our well-being, and generates a sensitive and responsive development of the physical context we live in, broadening our imagination and stimulating our senses. He regularly lectures at architectural schools, conferences, and symposia in Slovenia and abroad. In 2003 he was a studio tutor at the Berlage Institute in Rotterdam. He was a visiting critic at AA London, the Bauhaus Kolleg in Dessau, the IAAC in Barcelona, the ETH in Zürich, the Universität für Angewandte Kunst Wien and the Academy of Visual Arts Vienna. He participated in two issues of AB architectural bulletin magazine as guest editor. He published numerous articles about current events in architecture and urban planning, in diverse publications. Boštjan Vuga is currently guest professor at the Adip, TU in Berlin. With the Formula New Ljubljana – a collection of their own projects and urban studies - the architects at SADAR+VUGA intervene in the political and decision-making process. They believe that architecture should not merely function as a design object, but also be a means to shape and change social space: they want to make a look at the world in a different way, so that we can also act differently in it. He will take part - as Keynote Speaker - at the Closing Conference, at MOCAK Musuem of Contemporary Art in Cracow, 26th of October. link to the office: sadarvuga
