SANGRAD + AVP Architects combines architecture, urban planning, and design. Our approach integrates different disciplines to create solutions that meet contemporary needs — from residential complexes and educational institutions to commercial buildings and public spaces.
We approach each project with attention to detail, functionality, and aesthetic value. Our goal is to surprise — not just meet expectations.

The existing bus station in Slavonski Brod is in a logical location in the city. It is situated along the Petra Svačića Street (city avenue) and the railway station with an overpass that connects the north and south sides of the city. Unfortunately, the existing building, a building in the manner of peaceful and decent […]
Three five-floor student residential pavilions were placed above the rectangular ground floor built for the purposes of the canteen. The residential volumes signify duality in approaches. On the one side, they are cantilevered over the base with the intent of marking the main entrances to the sections of the ground floor, and on the other […]

The volume begins with a semi-open, covered courtyard, open in the middle with a niche at the main entrance and ends with a closed gable at the stadium. On the ground […]

With the student restaurant on the front (west) side, the restaurant forms an orthogonal classic city access square, while on the […]

The APCC seeks a new expression which is achieved through a regular volume wrapped by a perforated façade inspired by traditional Croatian lacework. The color-suppressed and neutral presence of whiteness of the […]

The lifted classroom volume slabs are outdoing […]
