THE PRACTICE

Where function
finds character.

I’m an industrial designer based in Dubai, with a background spanning boats, transportation, connected hardware and safety equipment. My work is shaped by the relationship between an object, the people who use it and the setting it belongs in.

That means thinking beyond the first impression. I’m interested in proportion, interaction and the physical details that bring a product together. Through concept development, 3D modeling and visualization, I explore how an idea can take a clear, considered form.

HOW I THINK

My approach.

  1. Start with why.
    Design for who.

  2. Make every detail
    earn its place.

  3. Zoom out. Zoom in.
    Keep questioning.

  4. Think across scales.
    Make it tangible.

THE PERSON BEHIND THE PRACTICE

Future forms,
grounded in function.

My story begins in Belgrade, where I graduated in Industrial Design from the Faculty of Applied Arts in 2014. Today, I live and work in Dubai.

My experience includes boat design at Aeolos, art direction at Atmosphere and senior industrial design at Smart Retail. Those different settings have shaped the way I look at products, moving between large structures and small, closely considered details.

Alongside industrial design, I explore 3D development, rendering and AI visualization. They give me different ways to investigate form, test a visual direction and communicate an idea.

I’m interested in conversations with product teams, collaborators and companies looking for an industrial designer — whether for a defined project or a new role.
