ARCHITECTURE OF MEMORY: ANALYSIS AND METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH TO THE PRESERVATION OF MONUMENTS OF POST-WAR MODERNISM IN SERBIA
The subject of this paper is the analysis of modernist Yugoslav architectural heritage through the lens of memorial architecture, created during the post-war period of the country's reconstruction. The modern architectural style in Yugoslavia developed in a unique way compared to other countries, through the construction of monuments that, in addit...

PILOT ELICITATION OF LOCAL NAVIGATION PARAMETERS FOR PEDESTRIAN WAYFINDING: A BANJA LUKA CASE STUDY
Pedestrian route choice in cities depends both on the overall structure of the street network and on local decisions made at points of directional change. While space syntax has shown the importance of configurational relations, wayfinding and navigation tasks point to additional cognitive mechanisms related to landmarks, route legibility, and task...

CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN AS A FRAMEWORK FOR URBAN IDENTITY PRESERVATION: THE CASE OF NOVI PAZAR
Contemporary urban transformations in smaller historic cities often threaten spatial and cultural identity due to context-insensitive design. This paper explores the role of contemporary architecture in preserving and reinterpreting urban identity, using Novi Pazar and Prvomajska Street as a case study. The research combines theoretical concepts of...

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BUBBLE MORPHOLOGY AND ABRASION RESISTANCE OF FOAMED CONCRETE
Abrasion resistance is a critical durability parameter of foamed concrete applied in floor screeds and wear - exposed surface layers. Owing to its cellular structure, abrasion performance depends on bubble morphology, including size, distribution and uniformity. This paper presents an experimental study combining high - magnification microscopy wit...

EVALUATING STUDENT CREATIVE COLLECTIVES IN ARCHITECTURAL EDUCATION: A MIXED-EVIDENCE CASE STUDY OF APLExMANIA TEAMS
This study examines student creative collectives as semi-professional formations linking architectural education and practice, focusing on micro-level team dynamics. Four APLExMANIA teams are evaluated across four domains: group formation, extra-curricular learning, visibility networks, and latent capacity. Using a joint display approach, the resea...

EVOLUTION OF APPLIED FORMS IN MEMORIAL ARCHITECTURE: FROM PREHISTORIC STRUCTURES TO MODERN INTERPRETATIONS
This paper examines the development of forms in memorial architecture, from prehistoric structures to abstract monuments. It demonstrates how basic patterns such as circular structures, pyramidal forms, and simple geometric shapes have established enduring principles in memorial design. Over time, these forms have evolved under the influence of rel...

INFLUENCE OF EVAPOTRANSPIRATION ESTIMATION METHODS ON IRRIGATION SYSTEM DESIGN
This paper evaluates methods for estimating evapotranspiration (ET) and their influence on irrigation system design, using a case study from Modriča, Republic of Srpska. We compare empirical, physically-based, and remote sensing approaches including Thornthwaite, Hargreaves–Samani, Jensen–Haise, Linacre, McGuinness and FAO Penman–...

THE MODERNIST HOUSE ON THE CORNER IN THE INTERWAR ERA: ARCHITECTURAL EXAMPLES IN BANJA LUKA
The paper explores the impact of location on the architectural form of family corner houses built during the interwar period and designed in the spirit of modernism. The specificity of a corner house's design lies in its conditioning by its urban position; on the other hand, a corner location demands that the house stands out as a landmark within t...
