Forum Metalka
Forum Metalka is a new, modern business centre in the city centre, located in a building that is recognised as a social icon and architectural landmark of Ljubljana for its rich past. With more than 10,000m2 of space, it provides a suitable environment for companies that want to build their business culture in an excellent location and a stimulating working environment. It is a mix of office space and a publicly accessible ground floor that acts as an extension of the city's parterre, inviting passers-by to try boutique cuisine or shop in the gallery shops.
History
The first business building in Slovenia was built in 1963 at the Ajdovščina intersection in Ljubljana, according to the plans of Slovenian architects Edo Mihevc and Boris Leskovec. It is situated at a strategically important crossroads of two city roads, at the entrance to the inner city ring. Metalka was thus the first to begin the transformation of the Ajdovščina district into the business centre of Ljubljana.
Location
Forum Metalka is located in the heart of Ljubljana and its business district, which is one of its main advantages. It is surrounded by the Slovenian Reformation Park and Miklošičev Park, and many important public and private buildings are nearby. A view of the old town opens up just a few steps away, across the Ljubljanica River, and a pleasant walk further leads you to Tivoli Park.
Accessibility and mobility
Because of its central location, the area is easily accessible by public transportation, as well as by foot or bicycle. It is directly adjacent to the inner city ring, which is the primary route for passenger traffic in the city. Access is made possible by the various traditional and environmentally friendly transportation methods in the area. There are bus stops, bike rental stations (BicikeLj), and electric vehicle charging and rental stations nearby, and the main bus and train stations are only a few minutes away. Forum Metalka also has its own parking spaces directly under the building, which is a significant business advantage.
