“We were gathered as three young just graduated architects from the same generartion, and we described our own front without any idea that implied anything other than what was known to us, though it might have been expected.  In that sense, this project above all else sets generation boundries and describes a pressing problem, which is global in its spatial distribution.   This makes it a strong impression of the moment, not only in regard to architecture today, but also to us as the authors to whom this topic will not be of interest already “tomorrow”, as we will outgrow it.  Our project reflects on the problematic position of young architects in professional circles; it sheds light on the severity of the system they are facing and puts forward deviation as an only space for further actualization in a climate of hyper-connectivity and relentless competition, thereby resisting the absolutist character of postindustrial capitalism.”
Stefan Vasic, Ana Sulkic and Igor Sjeverac

The Flood is afoot.
The insides of the arc, hideout of the rebellion, radiate hope.
Trench of the revolution has been drawn,
From the lower deck we row towards the treasure, bathing in
Blue which has no boundaries and not a single drop of bad blood.
