40 years Ktirio Magazine

Leafing through today’s KTIRIO, as well as older issues, one can see an evolution in the way information is presented—an approach that remains at the forefront both in technical topics and in the projects it features. It has offered—and continues, with passion—to inform readers about contemporary technologies and materials, providing comprehensive, well-rounded details of complex construction solutions.

We consider it to be among the magazines that have contributed significantly to the development and improvement of the design of buildings as well as infrastructure. Achieving all of this presupposes the ongoing efforts of the people who stand “behind” and “in front of” the regular or anniversary editions—people who, beyond technical knowledge, also have the willingness to contribute more broadly to the quality of architectural design, as well as to other technical disciplines.

The thematic/special editions published from time to time also contribute to shaping a complex handbook that provides technical education while offering high-quality, well-resolved construction solutions and details. As mentioned above, beyond purely technical construction matters, KTIRIO has significantly expanded its research, presenting new contemporary materials with quality certifications, as well as their evaluation within the framework of LEED.

All these—and many other aspects related to construction—are combined with presentations of important projects, accompanied by the corresponding analyses of the respective designers/study teams.

Even the careful selection of advertisements provides designers and contractors with direct information on materials and technologies.

The layout, the engaging creative approach, the carefully chosen paper, and the print quality—elements that are very important for a publication—enhance the magazine’s overall high-quality image and make it a pleasant read.

KTIRIO is one of the most important multi-dimensional magazines in the field of architecture and, more broadly, construction.
