Split During Yugoslavia -The Magic of Urban Utopia
Are you looking for a more authentic experience in Split than what you can learn from a guidebook?
Do you wish to explore a part of the Split town included in the MoMA in New York City display "The Concrete Utopia: Architecture in Yugoslavia" and take in the elegant socialist concrete constructions during our trip? We can uncover the tales of painters, protestors, and people who are passionate about their city and locality in spots you would never have thought to investigate by yourself.
This experience will stick with you even after you have left Split and Croatia.
See you

Architecture of Split 3 Featured in MoMA's "Toward a Concrete Utopia" Exhibition. New York 2018.
“Built in the 1970s, Split 3—an expansion of the Croatian city of Split—was one of the last large-scale urban planning schemes in Yugoslavia and one of its most ambitious and successful. It combined megastructure housing blocks with careful attention to pedestrian streets, which were conceived as a forum for urban life, and a mixture of spaces for living, work, and leisure.
Providing housing for approximately fifty thousand new residents, the massive undertaking was praised internationally for its communal and public space and its integration into the existing terrain,” said MoMA
