Pop-up dom
Pop-up dom (or Pop-up home) is a one-month store where products, produced by Slovene makers, artists and designers, are exhibited and put on sale in a homelike atmosphere. The first edition took place in 2012, when a pre-Poligon team occupied an old-fashioned apartment in Ljubljana city centre and transformed it into a co-working environment with selected Slovene products. In 2013 the idea of Pop-up dom had grown bigger, it offered more than 250 design pieces and host various educational and cultural events, such as concerts, culinary happenings and two festivals. In January 2014 a part of it was exhibited in A plus A gallery in Venice.
