At the moment of its publishing in 1986, the quadruple edition of Arhitektura entitled Architecture in Croatia: 1945-1985 represented the most extensive endeavour of its editorial staff, whose primary task was to create the first systematic overview of architectural production in Croatia after the World War II. The catalogue basis, followed by articles and studies of the important
actors on the architectural stage of that period, makes a selection and presentation of the production which, often through direct determination, in continuation of a rich historical built heritage, created a spatial- visual identity of contemporary Croatia.
The editorial staff comprised active creators whose works shaped the expression of those times in this region, as well as established art historians. In creating
this important publication, they sought to make a convincing, authentic and informative catalogue-type edition that speaks about architecture of one specific
time in history. Nowadays, this presentation of the main factors of architectural standards in Croatia, represents a valuable contribution to the profession and an essential part of the education of new architects.
