In July 2014, the AA Visiting School Slovenia, a three week design-build-make, experimental, teaching and research programme, part of Architectural Association School of Architecture in London, explored nanotouristic strategies in relation to the building and institution of Cultural Centre of European Space Technologies (KSEVT), which generates 25.000 visitors per year, and Vitanje, the town of 600 inhabitants.

The work focused on the concept of experience tourism, engaging in projects, from site-specific micro interventions at a 1:1 scale to holistic strategies for existing context. Adapting to their specific setting, the projects materialized in actions and structures that are temporary or permanent, creating a comprehensible, tangible and novel experience of tourism. Within the contemporary economic realities, the workshop aimed for small and smart solutions that relied on local resources and innovative design to create participatory interaction between the visitors, the building and institution of KSEVT and the community of Vitanje.
