Milena Zindović is an architect, currently based in Belgrade, Serbia, whose interests include architectural, urban and interior design and urban planning , as well as research on urban development and gender mainstreaming. She works as an independent architectural and planning professional in the fields of design, project management and  consulting services.

For my interest and passion, I am convinced that the appropriate design of each space improves the quality of life of the user. For this reason, I consider each new project as a personal challenge and I always aim for space production of the most high quality thanks to a dynamic architecture. Sociability, creativity, sense of organization and methodical sense are elements that characterize me.
