A CONTRIBUTION TO THE REVITALISATION OF MIROVO – A PROPOSAL FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW LITTLE CHAPEL
MARTINA STJEPANDIĆ
Abstract
By problematizing the question of the revitalisation of the Velebit region, the author
presents the Kapelica of Mirovo project – a project located in the area of central Velebit, right
near the locality of Mirovo, which is not an end in itself but is the product of research and a deep
connection with Velebit, which in the end have resulted in the conceptual solution which takes
into consideration elements of the past, tradition, contemporaneity, yet also anticipates the future
– with the aim of the repeated rapprochement of man and the mountain, as well as man and man,
and man and his transcendence. At the same time he not only uses an architectural approach but
also advocates a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to the solution of the problem of
revitalisation, which puts the emphasis on the preservation of the tradition and authenticity of
Velebit and the Velebit way of life.
