Illegal construction trend: multi-family apartment buildings in Pristina after 2000

Session

Architecture and Spatial Planning

Description

As a result of the last conflict in Kosovo, many residential buildings were destroyed, which encouraged the migration of citizens from rural areas to urban areas. Such a phenomenon was observed in the largest cities of Kosovo, especially in Pristina. As a result of the rapid expansion, lack of planning and the relevant institutions were not fully operational, this enabled developers to increase number of illegal constructions in Pristina. This occurrence has existed in the past, but was usually expressed in rural areas, now such a phenomenon appeared even in the densest urban areas. The purpose of the paper is to research the situation of illegal constructions in Pristina with the focus of the study multi-family apartment buildings built after 2000. Through examples, the impact of illegal construction on the quality of apartment attributes will be analyzed.
