About Us.
It is just two of us working full time in our own Studio in a beautiful Old Town of Belgrade and in NYC. Meantime our extensive networking allow us to involve any type of specialist from distinguished calligraphy artist from Japan to aerospace engineers from NASA or MIT within a couple of hours if a certain project requires it. We are not freelancers, we are a self-employed duo, with a large Studio responsibility level, yet reasonable freelancers-like prices range.
