Introducing Zemlja, a sustainable and adaptable apartment retrofit in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, designed by Project V Architecture in 2023. This ecologically and economically viable project reimagines urban living, drawing inspiration from the city’s architectural history and the resilience of its citizens.

Zemlja, meaning “earth,” “land,” and “country,” offers a glimmer of hope for a viable alternative through sustainable reconstruction, promoting the use of local, natural materials and fostering a holistic approach to social repair and healing in the war-burdened Grbavica neighborhood.
