Practice
edit3LHD is an architectural firm, focused on integrating various disciplines – architecture, urban planning, design and art.[3] 3LHD architects constantly explore new possibilities of interaction between architecture, society and individuals. With a contemporary approach, the team of architects resolves all projects in cooperation with many experts from various disciplines.
Projects, such as Memorial Bridge in Rijeka, Croatian Pavilion at EXPO 2005 in Japan and EXPO 2008 in Spain, Riva Waterfront in Split, Croatia, Sports Hall Bale in Istria, Zamet Centre in Rijeka, Dance Centre in Zagreb, Hotel Lone in Rovinj, Freshwater Aquarium in Karlovac, LN Garden Hotel in China and Grand Park Hotel Rovinj are some of the important projects that have established 3LHD not only in the professional circles but also in the wider public circles.
The work of 3LHD has received important Croatian and international awards, including the A+Award in the Architecture +Landscape category 2017, the award for best building in Sport category on first World Architecture Festival WAF 2008, IOC/IAKS Bronze Medal Award 2009 for best architectural achievement of facilities intended for sports and recreation, AR Emerging Architecture Award (UK), the ID Magazine Award (USA); and Croatian professional awards Drago Galić (2013; 2008), Bernando Bernardi (2009; 2005), Viktor Kovačić (2019; 2011; 2001), and Vladimir Nazor (2019; 2009; 1999). In 2012 Croatian President Ivo Josipović awarded 3LHD with the Charter of the Republic of Croatia for an exceptional and successful promotion of contemporary architecture in Croatia and abroad.
They represented Croatia at the Venice Biennale 2010, 12th International architecture exhibition with a group of authors, and took part in the 2008 'Mare Nostrum' exhibition on the second International Architecture Biennale in Rotterdam, and in a group exhibition in Boston at Harvard University: "New trajectories: Contemporary Architecture in Croatia and Slovenia".
3LHD's projects have been presented in reputable international and Croatian magazines and journals, such as Japanese A+U, British The Architectural Review, German DB, Italian The Plan, Croatian Oris; and also in many architectural portals and web pages.[4]
3LHD architects are actively involved in teaching and have been visiting lecturers and critics in numerous cities and institutions such as ETH in Zurich, Berlage Institute in Rotterdam, RIBA London, and Architectural Faculties and Universities such as Harvard and Northeastern University in Boston, technical universities in Vienna and Munich. Currently, the office partners are Guest Professors at GAF Architectural Faculty, University of Split, at Architecture Faculty, University of Zagreb, Croatia, and Cornell University.
