Today marks 10 years since our dear Vojteh left us much too soon.

In the book, Stories of Slovenian Architecture, which is being prepared by Špela Kuhar and Robert Potokar, one of the stories will be dedicated to his creative work. At the end of this story the authors wrote:

“He loved jazz, especially Miles Davis. Davis, a master of improvisation, played intuitively and lightly as if guided by an invisible hand, and Ravnikar's creative process felt very similar. The lines that appeared on the paper gave the impression that they were passing from a parallel world, unknown to us. "

Let these two sentences stand in memory of Vojteh next to his works.
