Soltec at SHARE Architects Conference in Ljubljana: Dynamic Façades Shaping the Future of Architecture

Ljubljana, 10 June 2025 – At this year’s international SHARE Architects conference, held at the Intercontinental Hotel in Ljubljana, one of the keynote speakers was Mirko Požar, founder and CEO of Soltec. In his presentation titled “Dynamic façade as an active architectural element: merging form, function and comfort for an exceptional living experience”, he showcased key trends and solutions shaping the future of architectural design.

Façade as a responsive organism

Mirko Požar emphasized that dynamic façades are becoming more than just the exterior envelope – they are responsive architectural systems that regulate light, heat and privacy in real time, significantly enhancing energy efficiency and quality of living.

Systems tailored to architecture

Soltec introduced innovative folding, sliding and lifting panel systems, as well as brise-soleils, adaptable to a wide range of architectural concepts – from commercial buildings to residential developments. The focus was on completed projects and their unique features.

Architect-centric development process

A key advantage of Soltec’s approach is the architect-centric workflow – a process developed in close collaboration with architects, from the initial design sketches through to construction details and installation. This ensures high alignment with design vision and project specifications.

Five challenges solved by dynamic façades

1. Integration of design and functionality

2. Visual and thermal comfort for users

3. Resistance to weather and mechanical stresses

4. Energy efficiency and reduction of operating costs

5. Compliance with environmental standards and sustainability goals

Inspiring gathering of professionals

Attendees had the opportunity for personal interaction with the Soltec team, insights into real-world case studies, and networking with top international architects and experts.

“Our vision is to offer architects more than a product – we provide a partnership in creating intelligent, aesthetic and long-lasting solutions,” emphasized Mirko Požar.
