Arena Living: Heritage & Resort constitutes the second performance within the World of PanTerra series. In this iteration, the fictive company positions itself in Pula to realize an urban regeneration of an abandoned military barracks along the Valelunga, a maritime stretch of Pula Bay currently poised for investment and strategic development, including the city’s planned Innovation District. The staged project promises a contemporary Istrian living hub, cultivating a curated ethos of community and slow living, while offering residents proximity to gardens, vineyards, and the sea via a designed promenade and yachting marina.

Bella Vista Split inaugurated the World of PanTerra series, staged within the Youth Cultural Center in Split as part of the 42nd Split Salon. Months prior to the exhibition, the building (originally constructed in the 1980s but never fully completed) was slated for reconstruction, though the project had since been indefinitely postponed. For this performance, PanTerra d.o.o. announced the demolition of the center to make way for an ambitious residential complex, marking the company’s first foray onto the Adriatic coast. The proposed development promised potential buyers a curated experience of Dalmatian old-town charm embedded within a contemporary living environment: a picturesque tranquility juxtaposed with urban vibrancy. Architectural typologies responded to the local topography, evoking the rhythm of sea waves and the contours of Dalmatian rocky terrain, while each building’s corner was envisioned as a site for the display of art and cultural memory.
