In Yugoslavia's "Third Way" architecture, Brutalism meets the fantastical

Squeezed between the two rival Cold War blocs, Yugoslav architecture consistently adhered to a modernist trajectory. As a founding nation of the Non-Aligned Movement, Yugoslavia became a major exporter of modernist architecture to Africa and the Middle East in a postcolonial world. By merging a variety of local traditions and contemporary international influences in the context of a unique Yugoslav brand of socialism, often described as the "Third Way," local architects produced a veritable "parallel universe" of modern architecture during the 45 years of the country's existence. This remarkable body of work has sparked recurrent international interest, yet a rigorous interpretative study never materialized in the United States until now.

Published in conjunction with a major exhibition on the architectural production of Yugoslavia between 1948 and 1980, this is the first publication to showcase an understudied but important body of modernist architecture. Featuring new scholarship and previously unpublished archival materials, this richly illustrated publication sheds light on key ideological concepts of Yugoslav architecture, urbanism and society by delving into the exceptional projects and key figures of the era, among them Bogdan Bogdanovic, Zoran Bojovic, Drago Galic, Janko Konstantinov, Georgi Konstantinovski, Niko Kralj, Boris Magas, Juraj Neidhardt, Joze Plecnik, Svetlana Kana Radevic, Edvard Ravnikar, Vjenceslav Richter, Milica Steric, Ivan Straus and Zlatko Ugljen.

The best of many devotionals
Among the many good devotionals we have, my wife and I think this is the best. I made a January 1, 2025, commitment to read it every morning before touching any of my devices. It was easy to do all year because it spoke to my life in fresh ways every day. I am doing the same thing in 2026. We have given many copies to special friends, who also report how important it is to their spiritual growth.

Insightful and encouraging as well as biblical
I've been a Christian for over 40 years. This is hands down the best of ocean life ever read. I've read os won't chambers and Charles spurgeon. And they're great. But what I got from this devotional was a perspective that I had never seen before it challenged my thinking on Grace and Grace living. If anyone is struggling with performance anxiety or general OCD. Focusing on the grace of God can be a great help. Every devotion highlights our need and God's wonderful perfume provision of grace. I can't recommend this devotional enough. In fact it's one of my number one gifts for the people at church.
