Hi, my name is Matea and I help people and brands craft impactful stories through their designs. My expertise lies in creating meaningful and functional spaces, as well as visually compelling brand identities. My services Include: • Architectural design • Interior design • Visual identity • Graphic design • Presentational blueprints • Design consultations I aim to work collaboratively with my clients, breaking down the design process into clear phases so you’re involved every step of the way. Typically, projects are divided into: 1.) Concept Sketch (Vision) 2.) Concept Development 3.) Finetuning (Final Amendments) Each phase includes a meeting to gather your feedback and ensure the design reflects your vision. This way, you can track the process and confirm we’re heading in the right direction. Why work with me? I hold a master’s degree in architecture and have over 8 years of international experience. I started my career at Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) in Copenhagen, where I worked on complex projects for high-level clients like Hyundai, Maersk and Patina. My work ranged from residential buildings and museums to opera houses and multifunctional skyscrapers. This experience shaped my versatile skill set and global perspective. Beyond architecture, I’ve worked independently on product, interior and graphic design projects. I also co-founded a fine jewelry company in Copenhagen, blending craftsmanship with design. In May 2024, I launched my own architecture and design practice in Zadar, Croatia, where I continue to work on projects that range from branding to interior and architectural design. If you’re looking for a creative professional to craft a strong story through your brand or transform your space into something truly unique, I’d love to help! Explore my portfolio below, and let’s bring your ideas to life together.

No matter what I do, I try to put 100% effort and application into it, this applies to any design or creative brief I receive. I am not satisfied with average results and you will never receive an average. When I am designing, I combine all the visuals and sensory experiences that I have ever experienced, to take my design to another dimension and create a unique product through. I don’t allow my creativity and technical expertise to be limited.
