Science and technology park Vucevica, conceptual and architectural solution for the central building of the science and technology park in the municipality of Klis, Croatia, EU by ATMOSFERA™
The natural ambiance of the park is fantastic and inspiring itself. This landscape deserves careful analysis and a subtle approach in planning and construction.

The bottom of the sinkhole has become a socializing semi-atrium space on the south and north sides of the building containing a restaurant terrace, a coffee bar, a park with benches for rest, an amphitheater …
