Dizajn Arhitektura

What Dizajn Arhitektura does

Dizajn Arhitektura (dA) is a privately held Serbian architecture and engineering firm founded in 1996, headquartered in Belgrade with a regional office in Podgorica, Montenegro. The firm delivers full-lifecycle architectural and engineering design — urban planning, concept design, preliminary design, detailed design, interior design, and construction supervision — for enterprise clients across retail and commercial, hospitality, industrial and manufacturing, residential, and institutional sectors. Its named project portfolio includes the Hilton Belgrade, multiple McDonald's restaurants (since 2001), H&M retail stores, Henkel's Kruševac detergent complex, Dr. Oetker's Šimanovci facility, Magna Seating's Odžaci production plant, Carrefour / Delta Real Estate distribution and supermarket works, Porto Montenegro's Regent Pool Club Residences (137 luxury branded apartments), Hotel Viceroy Kopaonik, and the Smekja Palace / Iberostar Hotel in Perast.

The firm differentiates on technology through full-stack BIM implementation using Autodesk solutions (Revit, Robot Structural Analysis, Advance Steel, Navisworks, BIM 360) targeting BIM Level 3 full collaboration, and offers client-facing VR visualization for immersive pre-construction design review. Its core technology offering is the integrated BIM + VR workflow applied across all project phases rather than a standalone product. The business model is professional-services, project-based, and quote-driven; fees are determined by scope, complexity, building area, and service phases rather than disclosed unit pricing. Distribution is direct enterprise sales, with significant work sourced through executive-design partnerships with tier-one international firms — WATG, MHZ, Gensler, AECOM, CPG Corporation, Harper Downie, and Cristiano Gatto Design Team — which extend dA's reach into Central Asia (University of Central Asia campuses across Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan; Khorog Medical Centre in Tajikistan for Aga Khan Health Service).

dA is founder/partner-controlled under Owner and Managing Partner Jugoslav Janjić and Partner Nebojša Jeremić, supported by heads of design studios and licensed architects with energy-efficiency certifications. Headcount sits in the 80-100+ range, and recognition includes the 2018 Serbian Silver Gazelle Award (one of Serbia's fastest-growing companies) and the 2013 Mogren Town International Architecture Competition First Prize in Budva, Montenegro. No external funding, M&A, or public-listing activity is disclosed.
