During the Soviet era, Slovenia was renowned as an architectural oasis for experimentation on the western borders of eastern European greyness. Miha Desman describes how this small but significant nation has maintained its taste for design innovation, despite the shifting economic and political conditions of the past two decades. He outlines what present‐day Slovenia has to offer a greater Europe and the special qualities of its contemporary architecture. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
