Krunoslav Ivanišin (Dubrovnik, 1970) and Lulzim Kabashi (Peć, 1969) graduated in 1996 from the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Zagreb under the mentorship of Professor Ivan Crnković. After years of informal collaboration, they established their joint architectural studio IVANIŠIN. KABASHI. ARHITEKTI in Dubrovnik and Zagreb in 2003. They have designed and constructed buildings of various scales and purposes, in both ordinary and exceptional circumstances, for private and public clients. They have also participated in and won several architectural competitions in Croatia and abroad. Their residential architecture projects have been nominated five times for the Drago Galić National Award for Residential Architecture, presented by the Croatian Architects’ Association. They won the award in 2020 for the Villa in a View, embedded in a steep slope overlooking Dubrovnik’s city walls. They have presented their projects and other architecture-related interests through publications, exhibitions, and lectures at relevant Croatian and international institutions. Their project Magnifiers of Natural and Technological Elements was exhibited at the International Architecture Exhibition at the Venice Biennale in 2010. In 2021, they presented a selection of their works in the exhibition Projects and Things at the Oris House of Architecture. They contextualized their work up to that point in the accompanying book of the same name, through both text and images. Today, they work with architects Jelena Šošić, Ivan Mostahinić, Lovro Markus, Petar Planinić, and Sven Kartela. Krunoslav Ivanišin holds a doctorate and is an associate professor of architectural design at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Zagreb.
