Resources and Selection of Exhibited Works

Resources and information which were previously published in “New Family Houses I-VI” are provided to the organizers by Archpress, which publishing this publication since 2000 according to a concept created by Martin Mašek. Exhibited works were selected from the realized architectural works published in New Family Houses (issues 1–6), published by Archpress publishers, the chief editor, Andrea Bacova, of which is also the curator of the exhibition. The committee which selected the presented works consisted of representatives of architectural practice and the academic field from Slovakia and Canada.

The form and extent of architectural works did not play a role within the process of selection. The only criteria was their quality and positive contribution to Slovak architecture, as well as innovative attitudes. The exhibition presents thirty architectural works of individually designed residential buildings which have been built in Slovakia since 1989.
