“Nor this time has the jury been looking for works suitable to reward among the splendid and finished architectural realizations that were submitted. Instead, it strived to find a realization which suggests a solution to heterogeneous sidetracks of contemporary architecture. The solution it found is in its modesty and volume almost anonymous and perhaps incomplete, but no doubt in a brave way expressing some, architecturally immanent concept which might act as a direction to the right choice. That architectural solution is the village shop and post office building in Vremski Britof, in the centre of the Vrem Valley.”
