On the island of Vis, the historic Peškarija building stands as a living testament to the island’s rich fishing heritage. The Proarh architecture studio has transformed this space into a dual-purpose interior - a fish market by day and a restaurant by night. At the heart of the design is a stone counter, originally used for selling fish.
