Abstract
In the prolific body of work of Aleksandar Dragomanović (1921-1996), one of the leading figures of Croatian post-war architecture, department stores and shopping centres could be singled out for their innovative design. His fourteen projects were designed and built in various cities of ex-Yugoslavia (Prijedor, Sisak, Varaždin, Vinkovci, Zagreb) including a version of ”Nama” Trnsko in Novi Sad and Vukovar. He made a major contribution to the development of department store typology based on functional and engineering principles of Late Modernism.
