From October 4 to 27, 2025, a unique architectural exhibition titled “3rd Decade: Krakow’s Architecture 2020–2030” will be on display at Szczepański Square in Krakow, prepared by the Office of the Architect of the City of Krakow.
This exceptional presentation reveals the scale and nature of the transformations taking place in Krakow’s urban space in the third decade of the 21st century.
The exhibition brings together nearly 100 projects, both completed, in progress, and planned. Their diversity allows us to view the city from several perspectives: as an organism in constant transformation, a place where tradition meets modernity, and a space where the quality of life of its residents is shaped. The exhibition encompasses three main groups of projects:
This perspective allows us to see Krakow as a city that is dynamically developing, yet simultaneously strives to maintain the continuity and cohesion of its public spaces.
We are proud to announce that among the presented projects were projects by Horizone Studio, including:
These projects exemplify a contemporary approach to residential architecture in an urban context, combining functionality, high-quality common spaces, and sustainable solutions integrated into Krakow’s urban fabric.
The exhibition showcased the Masterplan for Wesoła, developed by a team of experts appointed by the City of Krakow, with @Bartłomiej Kisielewski, partner of Horizone Studio, serving as the lead architect and coordinator. You can read more about this interesting and important initiative in the article in Architektura i Biznes magazine and here.
The exhibition organizers emphasize that its goal is not to create a ranking of the best projects, but to highlight valuable architectural initiatives that shape the city’s image. It is also an invitation to reflect on how to consciously plan the development of urban space and the role of architecture in this process.
A statement by the Chief City Architect, Janusz Sepioł, highlights Krakow’s special position as one of the most important centers of contemporary architecture in Poland. The city is becoming a laboratory of ideas and a place for dialogue between historical heritage and modernity.
Horizone Studio’s participation in this exhibition is a source of pride for us – confirmation that our projects are part of a broader narrative about contemporary Krakow, its development, aesthetics, and identity.
