Modern Architecture in Zadar An introduction to its appreciation
Dražen Arbutina
Abstract
The author writes about modern architecture in Zadar in the 1930s. He also emphasises the importance of the architectural heritage for any new construction in a town several millennia old, and the conditions imposed by the specific Italian architecture of the period. As inter-war Zadar was part of the Kingdom of Italy, the houses built in Zadar at that time reflect almost all the contemporary currents in Italian architecture. The article presents examples of five characteristic buildings as a foundation for understanding modern interwar architecture in Zadar.
