Sarajevo — the Layered City

Sarajevo
The Journal

Sarajevo invites attention at street level. In Baščaršija, coffee, copper and the rhythm of the old streets give the city a human scale.

  1. The streets

    Begin with the old streets and the spaces between them, leaving room to look, pause and find your bearings.

  2. The workshop

    Copperwork is part of the setting of Baščaršija. Our photograph records a summer visit; a workshop encounter on a future journey is arranged separately.

  3. The table

    Coffee and a meal make space for conversation. Specific tables and visits on The Water Road are confirmed in each group's proposal.
