Abstract: In this article, the author takes the reader on a tour of recent publications and exhibitions on the architecture of socialist modernity in Yugoslavia. She presents a vivid discussion of the most interesting and worthwhile examples of this architecture, as well as their architects and designers. Her survey takes in the hotel resorts along the Adriatic coast, post offices, children’s homes, museums, theatres, and memorial sites. It also covers special items, such as the K67 kiosk and the folding chair Rex, both of which—like the hotels and other buildings, with their manifold references to contemporary modernist architectural styles—ive up to world-level design standards.
