About me
Philosophy:
I believe that architecture can help save our planet. My pas-
sion, as an architect, is to provide modern designed,
energy-efficient and affordable projects for middle-class
people. I am a resourceful person and love to work on
intimate projects that have the potential of creating broad
change. I enjoy working with people who share a like-
minded vision of sustainability, and are truly engaged with
the goals and creative outcomes of their project
Goals:
My hope is to expand my knowledge with regards to
sustainable architecture, studying primarily the potential of
recycled building materials, systems for exploitation of
renewable forms of energy as well as their application in
architecture. The ecological factor in modern society holds an
important position and by studying sustainable architecture
in-depth, hopefully ways in which our environment can be
(better) preserved may be highlighted. As architects, this is
arguably not only our duty, but also a way of discovering new
potential for the development
of functional and design solu-
tions. THINK GLOBALLY
Education:
ACT LOCALLY
I am currently a PhD student pursuing my Doctor
GO degree in sustainable design and architecture at
Vienna University of Technology. My education is
based on studding principles of sustainable architec-
ture, tutored by professor Françoise-Hélène Jourda.

Idea Project
.
. August 2007 he one-story house has an open floor plan enclosed in wide floor-to-ceiling sheets of glass
.
. between white steel piers and stock H-beams that anchored the glass in place. The
.
. project’s developed configuration has been based on the communicative and open character
.
. of the building. The fluidity between inside- outside is highlighted in the working and reception
.
. desk zones by the gradation: “outside – covered outside space – inside” and generates openness
.
. between the street, working areas and the garden.
.
. The service areas are enclosed in stone masses containing bathroom facilities, kitchen and storage
.
. areas, while the working area is completely exposed to the outdoors. Clear glass panels create a
.
. series of lively reflections, including those of the surrounding trees, and people walking inside or
.
. outside of the house, layering them on top of one another creating ever-changing images with
.
. each step taken around it.
.
. The building is intended to be as light as possible on the land, and so it is raised the house 5 feet 3
.
. inches off the ground, allowing only the steel columns to meet the ground and the landscape to
.
. extend past the residence. In order to accomplish this, the mullions of the windows also provide
.
. structural support for the floor slab. The ground floor of the project is thereby elevated, and wide
.
. Architecture Studio: steps slowly transcend almost effortlessly off the ground, as if they were floating up to the
.
. JC SPAGNUOLO ARQUITETURA - Londrina (Brazil) entrance.
.
.
Project Type: Office building Along with the area where the garden is in contact with the street, all these elements form the
.
base for the open character and the “embracing image” of the design.

aving a direct access on the highway building is formed as atrium house looking on a group of trees
.
.
in the middle of complex. Conditions characterized the site as a contained atrium garden, which
.
.
appeared to be an ideal situation to take distance from noise of the highway. The requirements of the brief
.
.
were defined by the “minimum” needs of a large company, indicating that if the program was built in one
.
.
single volume there would be little open space; something undesirable due to the qualities of the site.
.
.
The plot is divided in two parallel strips, occupying the site in its full length, and one solid block of containing
.
.
monitoring room that encloses garden from one side. The distance with the neighbors is given by the local
.
.
norm, which requires having 2 strips of gardens, one towards the north and the other towards the south. The
.
.
interior programs of the building are organized in two bars, divided by a strip of garden of four meters of
.
.
width. This scheme alternates interior and exterior spaces, which are placed in different levels of the topogra-
.
.
phy, connected by elevated roof. This simple fragmentation of site and program, and the definition of different
.
.
levels, produces equivalence between inside and outside spaces; parallel interior and exterior connections:
.
.
encouraging a more casual life in the outdoors.
.
.
The two levels of the building are built establishing a contrast between a solid podium and a light roof struc-
.
.
ture. The podium - a concrete platform which attaches the house to the irregular topography, while the roof,
.
.
built in steel and concrete, connects the complex and protects from overheating.

. Located in Reading, this large Victorian double house is designed with huge garden and
.
. patio area. Both units provide a large hallway, two living rooms in with period features, a
.
. classic fireplaces. In another gesture to Victorian public decorum, the arrangement of the interior
.
. spaces reinforced the antiquated ideal that work life and family life should be kept distinct. The
.
. windows both at the front and rear, visually extending that space into the front and the back yard,
.
. and, enabling views from the back yard. Though these spaces are small, they are bright and airy and
.
. seem large since they all have visual access to both windows and other interior spaces of the home.

ECO TOWER
solutions business building with trading, residential housing and
culture in the future city center on the site of day’s Belgrade’s shipyard.
Studio Project
The goal of the project is to obtain high-quality urban-architectural solutions
that will get a basis for drafting the regulation plan. June 2008
The concept of an object can be defined as "House in the house" where the
object consists of two forms which are imbued with their morphology conflict-
ing, but in the same time also balanced. Both forms are constructively inde-
pendent units, but they have a common role in maintaining the life comfort.
Bimorph outer cover is inspired by nature while internal which contains the
main features of the object is octagonal.
The concept is inspired by sea animal which belongs to gender
Ascidiacea.Its anatomy that enables directed water
flow through body, directly applies to the circu
lation of air and thus sets the basis of the
concept of sustainability of the
building itself.
12. THE SMART UNIT
Studio Project
November 2007
The object was designed in such a way that it can stand alone in the environment, as
well as form a queue of houses when connected to other objects. It was designed as an
apartment unit for persons who spend most of their time outdoors. Therefore, instead
of implementing a large variety of functions, the house contains just the most basic ones.
The emphasis is put on the preservation of energy through environmental protection and
decrease of the expenses. Since the design itself is centered around this function, the object
has a mobile roof that changes position depending on the motion of the sun, choosing the
most optimal position for letting in or blocking direct sunlight.
The facade has the ability of adjusting according to the present weather conditions, which
also gives it an aesthetical role. The apartment unit is equipped with the appliances for
harnessing solar energy as well as energy of the soil.

C oncerning shape, the solution for the Mall serves the aesthetic language of broken surfaces and volumes and is woven with symbolic
architectural motives which, because of the interrelation and ambient disposition, explicitly evokes metaphorical image with recogniz-
able topographic
characteristics of a highlands.
The construction, by its rustic morphological membrane, manifests dualistic nature acting like coherent emanation of sea waves splashing
periodically over the jagged shore of Boka Kotorska bay or like rocky precursor of the Montenegrin mountain range.
Structural ground floor and platform like loft division produces an impression of a construction suspended in the air above the square, keeping
the existing natural and built up ambiance from being oppressed.
The vagrancy is preserved as much as making public garage and the mall allows. Certain interventions are made in the areas of less ambient
value but the space is enriched with indigenous plants set on the platform so to keep view to the sea conserved.
Though the object can be considered as an integral part of the environment – a segment pulled out of the local topographic resume.
14. THE TRAIN UNIT
his train unit was designed as study vehicle that can accommodate
Studio Project
basic working and living needs for 8 members of the research group. November 2006
Organized in two floors, train is divided in 3 areas:
-working area that is located in the front of the train with big panoramic
windows;
-sleeping area located in the back of the train with small terraces;
-and service area located in between these two functions.
These functions are not strictly segregated. By modifying some of the
furniture, working areas can become dining room, and also room for
leisure activities.
By big panoramic windows ascent is given to the ever-changing scenery
which the train is moving trough.
