Selling Architecture that Sells:
A Nordic Perspective on Quality Commercial Design
May 22, 2008, Ljubljana castle, Slovenia

Architecture conference 2008 addresses the the challenge of producing quality architecture that meets the needs of makers, users and the larger public – and commercial – good.
This is architecture of the Nordic countries that is used directly or indirectly, to represent, to convince; to sell. One of the issues the event explores is the confronting and/or eliminating of the walls or boundaries between commercially-viable design and quality architecture that preserves integral architectural values to create something contemporary (of our time) engaging, useful and enduring.

The Nordic Perspective
Architecture of the Nordic countries enjoys an extremely good reputation around the world, and in Slovenia in particular. It serves as something of both an inspiration for and a model of strong, innovative, high-quality design and enduring design integrity.
