KIP (Kosi and partnerji) was founded in 2017 in Ljubljana by Ana Kosi and Ognen Arsov. KIP creates architecture, from objects and interiors to buildings and urbanism, from essays and dialogues to lectures and research.
Our wide range of work is guided by common ideas. We create inspiring architecture that is both open and user-friendly. We work closely with our clients and co-create their spaces in dialogue with them. We are interested in the physical realisation of buildings and are present on construction sites and in workshops. We follow sustainable design principles and engage with local contractors and craftspeople. Our work constantly oscillates between intuitive, artistic creation and engineering pragmatism.
Our objective is to create physical and mental spaces that create “lighthouses” in the generic fabric of the built environment, the general collective mind and people's intimate lives. Through harmonious, thoughtful and abstract architecture, cleansed of superfluous information, we aim to break people out of the monotony of information-overloaded everyday life, to awaken their interest and stimulate new ways of thinking.
