“I work as an architect since 2003. During last 13 years I was involved in big projects and most of them was realized. Generally in our office we project university and office buildings and so far we made about 150.000 m2 of useful space. Lot of our projects are very complicated with special technology such as laboratories, clean-labs and other technical space. I am involved in each part of our projects from the first sketch to finishing touches. My work is not only making drawings but also meeting with installation designers, investors and building crew, working on all part of building documentation including coordination.”
