Aljaž Celarc from Hiša Mandrova visited students enrolled in the Professional Bachelor’s study programme Wood Innovation for Sustainability at the University of Primorska’s Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies (UP FAMNIT). He introduced his work at Hiša Mandrova and led a workshop on traditional woodworking techniques at InnoRenew CoE, UP IAM, on 5 November 2026.

During the workshop, students explored traditional crafts by shaping and weaving wooden baskets. This hands-on experience allowed them to learn traditional woodworking techniques and connect the scientific topics covered in their courses with the creation of practical wooden products.

Aljaž Celarc specialises in traditional woodworking techniques and also organises workshops open to the public. More information about his work and activities is available on the Hiša Mandrova website and Instagram profile @hisamandrova.
