The village of Ražanj abuts the southern edge of the bay of Rogoznica. This phenomenal fjord is part of the slender and fluid littoral line from Trogir to Šibenik. As Predrag Matvejević writes in his iconic book, The Mediterranean Breviary: A Cultural Landscape, We know neither the beginning nor the end of the Coasts. It is difficult to find out how they are interconnected, to find spaces where the sea and the land are reconciled with one another, and to find those where they are not, and may never be. In addition to this natural phenomenon, the village is also connected by an artificial one, created by people, permeated by post-socialist architecture and transitional quasi-urbanism.

The dynamics of this holiday home village vary depending on the season. The immense abundance of happenings during the summer period alternates with complete desolation and silence, broken only by the waves during gusts of the Jugo in late autumn and winter. This is such a common image on the Adriatic coast where holiday homes have prevailed for decades.

Holiday homes are often referred to as other homes. The word other does not derive here from its pejorative meaning, but from a different concept of living. Thus, the approach to the design brief is more complex and more specific for we live in these buildings only periodically, and our needs are somewhat different from the usual rules of urban living. A diagrammatic approach to design, from the intuitive experience of the place, the analysis of the elements of the space, the terrain configuration, architectural heritage, orientations and insolation, the neighbourhood, the analysis of the needs and lifestyles of the clients as future users, are parameters used by architect Ivana Dabrović in her work.
