Sažetak
Mileta Bojović, a Montenegrin architect, is regionally and internationally recognized as the author of housing complex Blok 5 in Podgorica. Nevertheless, his multi-decade oeuvre extends far beyond the scope of this single, albeit seminal, work. The aim of this paper is to present and critically contextualize Bojović’s substantial contribution to the development of multi-family housing in Montenegro, particularly within the context of self-managing socialism and primacy of use over market value. Methodologically, the research is primarily grounded in previously unpublished primary sources, including original project documentation, architectural drawings, and competition materials by the author. Additionally, the paper seeks to illuminate both the thematic diversity and the conceptual consistency of Bojović’s work, as well as his sustained advocacy of praxis. This dialectical unity of theory and practice is particularly evident in his long-term engagement with the development of Žabljak, where his multilayered involvement extended from urban planning to architectural desing, thereby significantly influencing the spatial and morhological identity of this northern city’s nucleus.
