PLEČNIK'S
AWARDS
2023

THE FILM

This year's winners are showcased in a new format, via a documentary film by director Dominik Mencej and director of photography Rok Kajzer Nagode. The awards were presented to topmost works belonging to different architectural practices - practices which build, change, and enrich our living space. Plečnik's garden and house together form an ambient where the great architect leveraged originality, idiosyncrasy, and architectural invention in order to tailor it for himself - which are all qualities of the 2023 Plečnik Award winners, the recipients of the highest national recognition in architecture.

The keynote speaker at the ceremony was the rector of the University of Ljubljana, Prof. Dr. Gregor Majdič, and the event was hosted by Luka Bokšan in the relaxed atmosphere of a May evening. Prof. Boštjan Vuga, MA, Chairman of the Board of the Jože Plečnik Fund, welcomed the guests and award winners with an introductory speech: "The Fund awards prizes to works that combine artistic imagination with contemporary social, political, economic, technological, and environmental developments, and which demonstrate that their authors are not only active creators of space, but of society as a whole. It also continues the tradition of expanding the field of activity of architects. The creators work in authorial, multidisciplinary groups, and the awards go to works that represent the reuse of spaces, works that are temporary and unfinished."

The expert jury, composed of Aljoša Dekleva (chair), Matej Kučina, Meta Kutin, Anja Planišček, and Špela Spanžel, selected one Plečnik Award, three Plečnik Medals, and two student scholarships in the revamped award categories (for large-scale architectural realization, small-scale architectural realization, public space, professional journalism, for the enrichment of spatial culture) selected one Plečnik Award, three Plečnik Medals, and two student scholarships.
