Tourism and sports are one of the first associations with Croatia. Exactly these two terms are combined in HOC Bjelolasica. In the past, the Bjelolasica ski resort and center in Gorski Kotor were the largest and most famous in Croatia for
skiing, sports training, team building, and school excursions...
but over time, the infrastructure remained in the past, investments were minimal, incomes decreased, which led to the
bankruptcy and abandonment of the center, which is now
abandoned and decaying. There was an idea that both the
center and the ski resort should be modernized, but this did
not happen. A new gymnasium and swimming pool were
planned in the municipal spatial plan, but they were not built.
In my master’s thesis, I dealt with the renovation of existing
buildings, the creation of a new central building that was demolished after a fire, and the design of a new gymnasium and
swimming pool. The task also includes arrangements for outdoor areas, playgrounds, and squares. Two more topics were
discussed in the master’s thesis; how such a center affects the
town where it is placed and how to integrate it into it, and
the sharing of such a center between athletes and tourists.
The main idea was to provide content and activities at the location, existing and new, which will ensure the use of the center throughout the year, regardless of the season and weather
conditions.
