The Rehabilitation of Villages in Serbia – The International Architectonic Workshop

The Rehabilitation of Villages in Serbia – The International Architectonic Workshop

During the last week of May 2014, in The House on the Flat Hill in Mokrin, the non-governmental organisation Architecture for Culture, in cooperation with the Architectural college of the Politecnico di Milano University, carried out the International Architectonic Workshop – The Rehabilitation of Abandoned and Dying Villages in Serbia. The goal of this workshop was finding new programmes, activities and solutions which could bring these settlements back to life.

According to the organisers, they chose this location for carrying out the workshop not simply because The House on the Flat Hill is situated in a rural surroundings, but because the Terra Panonica team also in a way deals with the topic of the workshop – the rehabilitation and repopulation of a village.
