I graduated from the Faculty of Architecture, University of Belgrade (Serbia) in 2010 where I obtained both Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Architecture. One of my greatest accomplishments during my studies was the Architectural workshop in Berlin. It resulted in producing a publication of the City Architecture in cooperation with 40 classmates and professors.

After graduation, I had the opportunity and honor to take part in the development and organization of Master’s thesis projects Exhibition called <Divergent youth scene>, together with a group of classmates. We got quite positive feedback from public, by proposing spatial solutions for important social and cultural issues and raising local community awareness in Belgrade.

Over the next three years, I worked for Autodesk as an architect / BIM consultant. During that period I attended and participated in various courses and conferences in the field of BIM and Sustainable design, thus acquiring advanced software skills for further practice.

Besides, I took part in several Architectural competitions as part of a team which consisted of my friends and colleagues.

For the last two years that I have spent at Shanghai’s Architectural offices (FMD Architects and BH Architecture), I have been part of teams that have successfully done a variety of project scales and typologies: large-scale masterplans and urban strategies, huge residential and mixed-use projects, brownfield and revitalization projects, cultural institutions, industrial and office buildings, landscape projects, interior design projects.

The project architect position allowed me to participate in creating concept design and preliminary design projects through sketches, conceptual models, Revit/BIM models, CAD drawings, diagrams and schemes, details, renderings, photomontages, post-production, presentation boards and exhibitions. Moreover, I gained significant experience as well as presentation and negotiation skills while travelling all around China to present our projects and meet Private and Government clients. That helped me find the right ballance among my abstract ideas as an architect, client requirements and rational user and contextual needs.

This two-year experience made me being highly inspired by teamwork but also professional with high individual skills and self initiatives.

Driven by everyday curiosity and willingness to acquire new knowledge and meet new challenges in the field of architecture I always tend to remain focused and dedicated and to successfully accomplish any given task and fulfill any requirement. That approach has lead me towards exploring the unconventional, constant professional upgrades as well as fast integration in any working environment.

The design philosophy is based on idea to develop projects through interdisciplinary research of contextual issues as well as social and cultural values, thus generating meaningful architectural space adopted to human scale. I also believe that the systematic process of ideas generation, communication and materialization leads to the best results and achievements.

Gongli business incubator is a brownfield project that aims to provide creative and flexible environment for start-up business, education, research, knowledge exchange. It is situated at the former â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gongli machinery manufactureâ&#x20AC;? hall.

The main challenge we were faced with was: how to integrate new functions within already existing steel frame structure grid? The answer is: by shaping the voids. Creating a micro-ambients, a micro-atmospheres and finally micro urbanism, we are creating a dynamic business city inside the building. Those micro spaces are generated by their function and user needs. The space is consisting of three main typologies (private, semi-public and public spaces) interconnected by strong communication corridors with a ceaseless flow of natural light, thus providing a humaneous and inspiring working environment and leaving a possibility for flexible usage and adaptability.

Zhenhua glass park is a brownfield project that covers huge area including 40 Old Glass factory facilities. The project task included: restauration and adaptation of old brick factory facilities, revitalization of old warehouses for public usage, providing a visitor path for tourists and designing a new buildings: Museum of Glass and Information Center. While we were carefully merging the spirit of the past and the spirit of contemporaneity, we were achieving spatial and material unity, balance and harmony.

Using a method called Architectural layering, we are aware of traditional elements (layers of the past) and using them as an inspiration for creating a new elements (contemporary layers), not just copy them.

By expressing its spirit of timelessness, this place is providing visitors a comprehensive overview of whole its life, leaving a possibility for personal impressions and imaginations about the future.

Museum of glass is the space that contains the most of glass material properties itself. It is defined by porosity, sharpness, translucency, solidity, reflections, silence, light and shadows... and represents interactive glass sculpture - instalation itself.

This way we are positioning user into the core of glass material so they are able to experience material performances from inside.

Being inside the museum space, user is becoming a part of material, part of instalation and part of exhibition.

Film industry area is a system of old factories that are reused and redeveloped according by our design. Film industry in China is fast growing, fast changing market and require flexible and visionary approach. Our design proposal is based on interconnecting different studio halls with common/public spaces and functions.Each common space serves several functions for employees: restaurant, rest and leisure space, exibition hall, meeting point, conference room, visitor center, etc.Each of those common spaces, situated on the top floor of the hall is connected with other halls by pedestrian footbridges. Each of studios is designed as a flexibile, multifunctional space that change the function by exact movie direction purpose. In one moment it becomes the theater, museum, art factory, garage, studio, cinema, school, living the possibility to be shaped and arranged by users themseves. It simbolicaly represents all advantages of good quality contemporary cinematografy, it can be understood and experienced in a many different ways and the point is to make people inspired and transcedentaly settle them into a different space and reality.

While designing a 300 hectare Kunlun Eco-Industrial park, we were challenged by a client...and location itself. According to land development plans, client asked us to cover this huge 300 hectares area with a factories. After a lot of research about social and environmental impacts for local community we went in front of the client with slightly different proposal. As the location is enriched by natural diversity (hills, river, grasslands), our intension was to create a new industrial park typology where 4 basic city functions will be interwoven: work, living, traffic and culture. Providing a natural and humane living and working space, we believe that this concept gonna be attractor for whole local community and let people use and develop this area, not just pass by. As the result, we designed a masterplan consisted of 4 parts: OFFICE PARK, INDUSTRY ZONE, EXPO PARK AND RESIDENTAL ZONE. OFFICE PARK is a place for work, education, recreation and leisure.

• The Grand Canal of China stands as a magnificent and wondrous achievemen of Ancient China, linking the north and south by the waterway. It is the world’s longest artificial waterway and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

• The Grand Canal of China, also known as the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal is the longest ancient canal or artificial river in the world. It has a length of 1.776 kilometers which 97.5 km are in liaoCheng City, our intervention area given by a client.

• We were asked to redevelop landscape and urban areas around the Canal. The Main goals of our spatial programe and interventions were to preserve World heritage sites, attract more tourists as well as bring rewenue and better social life to the local community.

XINHUA is the biggest medical equipment manufacturer in China. Before I enroled, our company had already designed their Medical Research Center and construction has been started. It is a 20.000 m2 facility that contains labaratories, offices, classrooms, restaurants, leisure zones, exibition spaces etc. Although we had a several Interior Designers in our team, we were asked to participate in creating Interior Design from Architect perspective. It resulted by creating new spatial elements and re-shaping the space, not just decorating it. Blue is the company color.

• FMD (FORMAL DESIGN) ARCHITECTS is Shanghai based practice. I have enroled Project Architect position in April 2014 a. It is owned by experienced Chinese Architect JianFeng Wang who studied Architecture in the US and has already completed several important buildings along China. Our design team consisted of Dutch, Spanish , Romanian and several Chinese Architects and Designers.

• Our company working process was based on equal share in creating ideas and brainstorming.

• The selected project in this portfolio was successfully approved by our client (Vanke). I have been engaged on it during all three months I spent in this company.

Building construction started at the beginning of 2015.

PERFORMED WORK: • Project Architect in collaboration with Owner and Architects and Designers.

• I was in charge of creating basic concept, Revit (BIM) model, presentations for client in all phases, and construction details in cooperation with our external partner.

• Periodical presentations and meetings with the clients and consultancies.

Nanchang office building concept is the result of an idea that tends to create inspiring , comfortable and humane place for work. As the average employee spends almost third of his life at working place, we decided to make the place shaped by basic human needs. Those ideas were imputs and attractors for spatial concept where all the working units are positioned on the facade, bathing in light. Size of each unit is dimensioned by number of employees and directly affect general design of the facade. The modules that generate facade grid have multifunctional role as a shelfs, partitions and sun shades. Functions that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require a lot of natural light: meeting rooms, conference rooms, kitchen, leisure spaces and service rooms are positioned in the middle of the building with direct access to inner atrium gardens and terraces. Building construction started at August 2014 and still is in progress.

• During the period between 2010 and 2014, I took part in several Architectural competitions as a part of a team which consisted of my close friends and colleagues. While working as an equal part of a team I started to understand what is most important for creating Architecture that has a soul. Systematic desing process, open discussion, readiness to change and develop idea further, considering and respecting everyones opinion as well as team unity and focus while making an important decission.

• All our designs are based on comprehensive research and study of contextual issues as well as social and cultural values.

• During the design process we pretend to find a source of inspiration in each segment of our human society: art, music, film, comic, literature, natural sciences, philosophy, anthropology, history, religions, mysticism, cosmology and after all phenomenon and miracle of human existence itself.

• We were equaly participated during whole design processes, from starting ideas and concepts to presentation boards.
