Based on its sources, the Regional Archives Maribor will prepare marking boards for houses and an exhibition of selected building plans and specifications of houses in the city center. The two projects uncover the circumstances in which the buildings were constructed and the way the city center developed, making comparisons to today’s circumstances. Buildings that may not house public institutions but have an interesting past because of the way they were constructed will be chosen. Crucial information will be put on informative boards, and additional information on selected buildings will be included into a publication. The boards will provide the locals and visitors with information about the role a building had in the past. While boards are usually placed on important buildings and houses, in which notable individuals were born, this project will do the opposite – it focuses on everyday stories about people and their homes, revealing how they spent their lives. The boards will stay on the houses permanently.
