Dimitrije has fulfilled the role of senior architect and has earned the respect of clients and

presented. He is well liked and respected as a valued and reliable team player and has
produced exceptional projects as reflected in his portfolio. During this time, Dimitrije has
displayed leadership skills and a unique ability to identify and solve design problems. His
presentation skill has been a very valuable asset, one that can certainly be of great value to
any company utilizing his services. Dimitrije is loyal and has stood by the company during

His design sense is world class and his technical skills are of an exceptionally high quality. He
has designed and packaged full sets of technically complex large projects from concept
design stage through to construction documentation including all interfaces with consultants.
