High-End Editorial Designer & Graphic Editor
Hi, I'm Dubravka, a Creative Director, Graphic Editor, and practicing Artist. I work with artists, galleries, museums, publishers, and cultural organizations worldwide.
My style is clean, structured, and highly respectful of the artwork. Because I hold a Master's degree in Museology and am an exhibiting artist myself, I understand that visual and textual materials need not only to look beautiful but also to be properly organized, contextualized, and presented. I combine editorial thinking with premium graphic design to create publications where the art truly breathes.
What I design
Art Catalogs & Monographs: Complete editorial layout (typesetting), cover design, and professional photo retouching.
Books & Publications: From novels and poetry to children's books and cookbooks, ensuring a cohesive visual identity across every page.
Exhibition Graphics: Large-format banners, wall graphics, museum object labels, and information panels.
Cover Illustration: Custom, original illustrations tailored to your book's theme.
Digital Presentations: Fixed-layout, interactive PDFs for web distribution (no reflowable ePub).
Hoe ik werk
You send the final, proofread text and high-resolution images, along with a brief and references.
I confirm the details, scope, and deadline before I start.
You receive flawless, print-ready files (CMYK, with bleed and crop marks) and digital PDFs. Source files (.INDD) are provided upon request.
Revisions are included (up to 3 rounds) until the publication is right.
