| Summary: | East of the Maksimir park-forest and the Bliznec stream, the first modern complex of the University of Zagreb was built based on an architectural competition in the 1930s according to the design of the Zagreb Working Group. The pavilion complex enabled a phased construction along the main axis, Green Street, which was shifted towards the southeast with the aim of achieving uniform insolation of the southern and northern areas of the pavilions. A sequence of different architectural expressions characterizes the southern buildings, the mastodon of Pavilion IV, which degraded the original concept, Pavilion V by architects Radimir, Auf-Franić and Pleština, Pavilion VI by architects Auf-Franić and Oluić – which reinterprets the original pavilions in a contemporary way. The Green Pavilion student restaurant of 3LHD, built based on the competition, is supported by a garden frame and fits into the exceptional complex of the University of Zagreb. Realizations based on architectural competitions testify to the exceptional achievements of modern and contemporary architecture. The Faculty of Agriculture complex represents a multi-layered architectural achievement enriched by an exceptional landscaped environment, which proves the connection between top results and a quality spatial environment. |
