DANS arhitekti was founded in 2004 by Rok Bogataj, Miha Dešman, Eva Fišer Berlot, Vlatka Ljubanović, and Katarina Pirkmajer Dešman. Their approach focuses on architecture that fosters social contacts, acts therapeutically, improves living culture and expands the imagination. Their architecture originates from the reflection of the physical, social, and symbolic context of the location. DANS arhitekti are most fond of projects with a salient social dimension, such as schools, kindergartens, hospitals, buildings for people with special needs, and in recent years, they have been engaged in the realm of sacral architecture.
Architect: DANS arhitekti
Location: Sava River, Bohinjska Bistrica
Client: The Municipality of Bohinj

This wooden bridge, which crosses the Sava River, is part of a cycle path connecting Bohinjska village with nearby Bohinj Lake. The bridge’s form, structure, and materials were carefully chosen to complement the surrounding environment. While the width and slope of the bridge provides room for cycling, its slim design resting on two V-shaped concrete piers accommodates the fluctuating water levels and flow between the seasons. The footbridge's two timber girders are clad with larch boards and shingles, materials recalling traditional methods used for architectural cladding and protection in the region. (ssl)
