"On a hilltop overlooking the Karst plateau lies the village of Avber - a tightly clustered settlement shaped by stone, wind, and time. Here, a homestead has been carefully revitalized for an Australian client whose family traces its roots back to this very village."
"The project reconnects him not only to a place but also to the architectural traditions of his ancestors. What emerges is more than a renovation: it is a cultural return, a home re-established within a fabric marked by the fierce winter burja winds, the weight of stone, and the memory of community life."
A homestead on a hilltop overlooking the Karst plateau in Avber has been carefully revitalized for an Australian client whose family originates from the village. Avber is a tightly clustered settlement shaped by stone, wind, and time, with built fabric that responds to the fierce winter burja winds. The revitalization re-establishes a home within the existing stone fabric and restores connections to ancestral architectural traditions. The work prioritizes cultural continuity, material weight, and communal memory while adapting the homestead to contemporary habitation. The result is a rebuilt domestic presence that honors local climate, materiality, and social history.
