STAMBENO – TRGOVAČKA ZGRADA VAKUF HADŽI IDRIZ
RESIDENTIAL - COMMERCIAL BUILDING VAKUF HADŽI IDRIZ

Summary/Abstract: In the time of global armed conflicts of the leading European and world powers, a dramatic period of reconstruction of a badly destroyed country, financially unfavorable opportunities for investments and deep-rooted urban-architectural endeavours, on the stage of Bosnia and Herzegovina, for the first time in history, young generations of architects are appearing who, with their realized projects, theoretical works and through socio-political engagement, they show that BiH successfully understands, accepts and offers creative solutions that in no way lag behind internationally recognized and widely accepted projects. Among the pioneers of that generation are the Kadić brothers, whose joint work and mutual cooperation through their own design bureau produced the first concrete examples of international style architecture in Bosnia and Herzegovina. One of these accomplishments is the residential and commercial building of Vakuf Hadži Idriza, at Maršala Tita Street 32, during the development and implementation of which the authors faced two crucial challenges - fitting into the found architecture of different building styles, but mainly the architecture of the Austro-Hungarian period and a negative consequence the abolition of a part of the already recognizable cultural and historical heritage from the Ottoman period, the mosque and the cemetery of Hadji Idriz.
