In recent decades academies and faculties of University of Ljubljana have faced several spatial problems, at the level of the city and at the level of individual buildings. The increasing dispersion of university buildings, the lack of spatial capacities, the necessary energy and seismic renovation of individual buildings are only some of the aspects of this spatial problem. The master's thesis focuses on the potentials arising from the current spatial development of the University of Ljubljana and recognizes the solution in connection with the concept of universality. Through research of evolution and future of the university and concepts of universality, changeability and adaptability, the concept of a universal, long-term flexible space is formed. This space would serve the members of the University of Ljubljana to carry out their study processes without interruption during the construction of new or renovation of existing facilities of academies and faculties. The programmatic and spatial analyzes of the individual members of the University of Ljubljana prove the usefulness of the university's universal space, which can be changed and adapted to any academy or faculty, as well as those that will be formed in the future.
The concept project, with the placement of a new university program in the programmatic and spatially questionable area of the Ilirija factory along Tržaška cesta, completes the system of university facilities in the city. The architectural design of new and renovated buildings creates a new identity for the area of Ilirija, which integrates into the local context and revitalizes it with new social content.
The basic concept of the project is a return to the original concept of universitas, which means everything or the whole. In this concept lies the potential for a successful future of the University of Ljubljana. A universal space that allows for changeability and adaptability will not only withstand changes in educational processes, but also enable and encourage new ideas.
