The remnants of this attack can still be seen: for example, the bombed and burned-out Ministry of Defense in the city center. The “White City” has a difficult past to overcome; yet it has still managed to make progress in moving closer to Europe. A direct train connection with Vienna was reinstated at the end of 2014 and there are plans to further develop the line to Budapest, which will immensely benefit the freight transport industry. The People’s Republic of China, which has strategically invested billions in diverse infrastructure projects for Southeastern Europe, has great interest in modernizing the railway from Belgrade to Budapest—and later extending it as far as the port of Piraeus. In the future, Chinese goods will be transported quickly and safely via this new route to Central Europe.1 Serbia looks set to benefit from Beijing’s global investment strategy, in which the country is seen as part of western Eurasia.2 This Chinese investment strategy benefits not only Serbia in general, but Savamala in particular. The Chinese play a significant role in improving the quality of life in Savamala—the neighborhood that this publication focuses on. For decades, heavy trucks have thundered down Karadjordjeva in the middle of the otherwise tranquil quarter. Most national and international north-south freight transport has to pass 11 SAVAMALA O N T N IO UCT 1 rod INT INTrodUCTION TO SAVAMALA 13 Today, the central train and bus stations are located here, in a southern part of Sava- BUREAU SAVAMALA mala that was once a swamp known as the Gypsy Pond.

With the goal of making this area presentable for SAVAMALA O such an ambitious project, the 1907 Geozavod Building was renovated. The streets Jürgen Krusche N T N and sidewalks were also redesigned, and the surrounding area was decorated with IO > 2 UCT hundreds of banners. ( ) This summer of renovation gave one a sense of the effects rod that large, well-funded development projects can have on an area. Even during the INT initial stages, that is even before anything has been built, large developments projects begin to change an area in a way that is at once both symbolic and superficial. This vision for the future represents an admirable and surprising conclusion to the project Bureau Savamala, for we at the project were able to follow the development of the quarter in depth, from its initial small changes, to the expansion of the design and club scenes, finally to this forward-looking vision. This project’s task and goal were to observe, document, and analyse the transformations taking place in Savamala until fall 2014 and these two years turned out to be a pivotal period in the quarter’s development. INTrodUCTION At the End, the Future Bureau Savamala’s research was wrapping up in summer 2014 when an exhibition designed to inaugurate the future of Belgrade opened on Savamala’s central square. Abu Dhabi-based developer, Eagle Hills, presented its multi-billion dollar Belgrade Waterfront project. The presentation used a large-scale model and computer-gener- ated pictures, and took place in one of Belgrade’s most beautiful historic buildings, the Geozavod Building, formerly the Belgrade Cooperative Building.1 This vision for the future—Belgrade Waterfront—is slated to be built on the Sava riverfront, starting in 2015, with the support of the government and municipality. A 180-meter tower is planned as its central landmark and “will put the site at the top of the rankings of the must-see spots of the world”, as the project’s website proclaims.2 The whole development—which will house the largest shopping mall in the Balkans—plans to create an image of what the future could look like, not only for Belgrade but Serbia as a whole. (> 1) “We are changing Belgrade. We are changing the face of Serbia. The whole country will shine like this high-rise!” said Prime Minister Aleksandar Vučić at the exhibition’s grand opening.3 This vision of a new Belgrade marks the conclusion (for now) of a decades-long discussion about an area that has also been known as the “Sava Amphitheater”. 1 The Belgrade Waterfront project, computer rendering, 2014 methods should supplement these analyses. In contrast to gentrification processes, 19 4. BUILDINGS AND PUBLIC SPACES upgrading is well suited to image-based research methods.

Interviews: Standardized interviews were conducted with Savamala residents and visitors, as well as with those who work in the area. A series of surveys were conduct- ed in May and October 2013, as well as in July and August 2014. The 2013 surveys were carried out as interviews while the concluding surveys in 2014 were printed out and distributed in Savamala in the form of questionnaires. Appeal Profile: The surveys included a so-called appeal profile that gauged the ap- peal the area held for respondents by asking them to express their feelings about the quarter with a list of adjectives. Substitutional Photo Inquiry: A substitutional photo inquiry of Savamala resi- dents accompanied the interviews and surveys. The results were presented as a street exhibit in front of Bureau Savamala on 19 July 2013; they were also pub- lished in the magazine Kamenzind.8 Nightwatch: On 19 June 2013, a so-called nightwatch took place; assessing the area’s expanding nightlife scene, changes were tracked from the afternoon long into the night. 3.

On the night before our wedding, the lobby bar of the Square Nine hotel was bathed in a marmalade lamplight, as if time were suspended. I still recall the bear hugs of my arriving friends, coats slapped, hands warmed with foam-clouded hot chocolates; the glorious mayhem that followed. Later that evening, at the Tri Sešira, a 19th-century tavern in bohemian Skadarlija, wooden boards descended as if from the air, piled high with mountain cheeses, kajmak (the love child of butter and clotted cream) and processional meats with dense cuts of pork and lamb. The home-cooked scents wrapped themselves around us, as did a ragtag of gypsy musicians, ever more raucous, on beaten-up accordions and guitars. The Serbian capital isn’t a showstopper; it didn’t grab me by the heartstrings the first time I arrived here as a reporter 15 years ago. But over years of returning, the things that failed to charm me before – things I simply couldn’t understand – now make me wonder how I ever lived without them.

  • 7Th ROWHOUSE on SENJAK in BELGRADE
    th 7 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE Contemporary achievements in civil engineering 23-24. April 2019. Subotica, SERBIA ROWHOUSE ON SENJAK IN BELGRADE: RECONSTRUCTION CASE STUDY Danilo S. Furundžić 1 Božidar S. Furundžić 2 UDK: 69.059.25 DOI: 10.14415/konferencijaGFS2019.084 Summary: This paper presents a case study of reconstruction and interior design of the rowhouse located in Temišvarska Street No. 27a, оn Senjak in Belgrade. The rowhouse (with basement, ground floor, first floor and attic) is reconstructed and new interior space (190 m2) is created. Ground floor is one-room space, children's room is on the first floor, and parents’ bedroom is in the attic. The reconstructed interior represents functional unit, which satisfies all family needs. Keywords: rowhouse, reconstruction, interior, case study, Belgrade 1. INTRODUCTION Each house project is different. An architect has to create appropriate environment that matches site and functions. Therefore, the architect has to study all aspects, evaluates pro et contra arguments and generate functional and agreeable project. In countries of Eastern Europe, a political change has also caused urban changes. Interior space reconstruction has become available to wealthier owners. Different rowhouse types are described in foreign books, journals, and magazines. In Belgrade there are districts with row houses (e.g. Dedinje, Senjak, Šumice, Cerak, Višnjicka banja, Bežanijska kosa). Examples of rowhouse interior reconstruction in Belgrade, however, are rare in domestic literature and that gave a stimulus to following writing. This paper presents the case study of reconstruction and interior design of the rowhouse in Temišvarska Street No. 27a. The solution of the client’s demands is, after several attempts, created on basis of a study of rowhouse function, volume, shape, and cost.
