Abstract
The monograph Croatian Museum of Architecture presents a representative selection from the Museum’s holdings containing around 150 000 items produced by the Croatian and foreign architects: drawings, sketches, scale models, manuscripts, studies, publications, digital recordings etc. The Museum’s core collection predominantly consists of either the individual works or the entire collections of works donated by the Croatian authors themselves or by members of their families. The monograph starts with a series of texts depicting the period and the circumstances under which the museum’s collection was built up. The central part of the book is dedicated to 87 architects listed in the alphabetical order including their short biographies and basic data about the stored documents as well as the representative plans, drawings and photographs from the Museum’s collection. The last part of the book contains texts that provide insight into the Museum’s publications. The monograph presents the holdings of the Museum and also points to its mission - promoting the architectural culture in the broadest sense possible.
