In the first instalment of a series of monographs on emerging architects in the relatively uncharted territories of the Balkans and Central Europe, ‘The Architecture Observer’ examines the Sarajevo-based Studio Nonstop, founded by Sanja Galić and Igor Grozdanić.

Studio nonstop is one of the foremost contemporary architectural practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With the capital Sarajevo as home base and principal work site, the architects of Studio nonstop have realized a number of impressive works since 1999, a selection of which can be found in this monograph. With their architectural and urban design work, they are contributing not only to the reconstruction of war-ravaged Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also to the reconstruction of an architectural culture of the Balkans, which was also thrown off balance by the civil war and the laborious transition from a stagnating socialism to an imperfect capitalism.
