The renovation
The house stood neglected for years. Between 2023 and 2024, it was completely renovated: new roof, insulation, plumbing, electricity, floors, and walls. The work was done by local craftsmen from the village and surrounding area. What remains: the original structure, the wooden beams, and the character of a traditional Bosnian house.
Equipment
The residency is equipped for music production, sound recording, video work, and general creative practice. The studio has a mixer, audio interface, monitors, field recorder, and various microphones and cables. Instruments include a Petrof upright piano, a Yamaha digital piano, and a Yamaha synthesizer.
For video and presentations: projector, screen, DMX lighting interface, LED softbox kits. Office equipment includes printer, scanner, and reliable Wi-Fi. The inventory continues to grow.
