Background
The acronym DESSA stands for Delovna skupnost samostojnih arhitektov, which is the Slovenian term for the Association of Freelance Architects, founded in 1982 by 36 architects for the primary purpose of helping private architects work in a socialist society. Since then it has provided both a business framework and a physical space for the activities of freelance architects who work in various design fields, ranging from urban planning, architecture, interior and graphic design to theatre set design.
With the possibility to establish private offices for architecture and in cooperation with the economic sector the role of DESSA has changed and many famous and prosperous studios have arisen, among them, Atelier, Bevk Perović Arhitekti, Ravnikar-Potokar Architecture Bureau and others. In 1996, with 74 founding members, DESSA restructured itself and registered as a non-profit cultural institution, DESSA Architecture Centre, with the objective of elevating general social awareness of the cultural value of architecture.
