He adds: “Fabiani was a ‘border resident’, belonging to a group of people who frequently had to change citizenship, language, life style and often also their way of thinking, just because they lived in a certain area.
A year previously, Fabiani started researching the problem of the area of Ljubljana called Bežigrad and his solutions are considered by the experts to be a work of art.
In it Fabiani underlines: “Maybe because of his timeless need for love and peace, man is longing for an era of mutual understanding among people and an incomparably higher level of harmony than we have today.

Born in Kobdilj, Maks Fabiani graduated in 1891 at the Vienna Polytechnics, worked together with Wagner, wrote essays on architecture and urbanism of Italy, Austria and Slovenia.
His ideas of urbanism as an art were demonstrated in his regulation projects for Ljubljana and the region of Gorica.

 Vienna 1900
In art and architecture, central developments of the "Modernist" movement, which re-mapped the landscape of Western culture, took root in fin-de-siècle Vienna.
The architectural work of Adolf Loos and Otto Wagner, for example, but also of Maks Fabiani, Josef Hoffmann, Friedrich Ohmann, Joseph Maria Olbrich, and Josef Plecznik would culminate only decades later in the German Bauhaus, whose goal was to liberate architecture from a concern with style.
In painting, the Viennese Secessionist school produced, in the works of Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, and Oskar Kokoschka, radical departures from artistic tradition in its unabashed exploration of erotic themes.

Yet the social if not spatial center of the square is the Prešeren Monument (1905) by Ivan Zajc and Maks Fabiani, which was strongly criticized when first unveiled, especially for flaunting a nude muse so near the church.
The favorite postcard view of Ljubljana, this brilliantly original structure is also one of Plečnik's greatest masterpieces.
It may be viewed as a grand procession of early modern architecture (though it's you that's marching, of course).

The shape of the square, in which four streets and four embankments flow together, was designed by the architect Maks Fabiani, who carefully planned a new connection between the medieval town and the railway station after the earthquake in 1895.
The main focal point of Prešeren Square is the monument to the great poet France Prešeren, set in front of the Central Pharmacy.
Its gala opening was on 10th September 1905.  The bronze figure of the standing poet, the muse above him and reliefs on the sides were designed by the sculptor Ivan Zajec; however, the pedestal with the granite lining is Fabiani's idea.

From catastrophe arose opportunity, and a chance to complement the existing Baroque with new development in a Secessionist style (Figure 5).
The origins of town planning in Ljubljana are from this period, with a regulatory plan by the city's senior architect, J Duffé, based on an earlier idea by Maks Fabiani (1865-1962).
This plan envisaged a ring of avenues, defining an extended city core; parts of this vision were realised in the north and west of the city centre, and can still be seen today.
