Green Design Center

Green Innovation Hub

International laboratory and innovation platform showcasing green concepts and technical solutions supporting circular use of materials, energy, water and other resources within the built environment.

GDC transforms historic abounded area (part of former 19th century Austro-Hungarian military camp south of Mostar – Bosnia & Herzegovina) into hub of creativity and innovation. Urban decayed industrial buildings have proven in numerous cases that their cultural value and architectural appearance can be transformed into inspiring and functional spaces for creative processes and innovation. This makes them especially suitable as hubs for entrepreneurship, creative industries, maker economy and new emerging city production. These buildings and the new activities filling their space represent a key resource in enhancing the aesthetic and cultural attractiveness and liveability of urban areas.
