Plečnik’s medal of 2017 for the recent achievement in architecture, landscape architecture and urban design was awarded to the National Football Centre Brdo.

Architects Krušec conceived two buildings, the seat of the National Football association of Slovenia and the Sport pavilion at the football fields, while Studio AKKA carefully redesigned the landscape to fit the football fields into the topography of the park and to reestablish lost formal qualities of the English landscape style of the Enlightenment estate.

From the argumentation of the jury: >>The architectural and landscape design of the Football Centre displays an awareness about the importance of sport as well as of architecture in national culture.<<
