Milica Stankovic – Designer

Hey! I'm Milica, a book design pro with 8+ years of experience. I transform raw text into shelf-ready masterpieces!

Overview

Hi, I am Milica, a designer skilled at creating whole books all the way from raw text to the printing press! I am the owner and creative director of a design studio, and I’ve also had the pleasure of working for, and with many amazing clients over the years, including the biggest publishing house in Serbia.

I specialize in book cover design, interior layout, prepress, and typography. I love hand-drawing, giving each design a unique, organic feel. I am professional, punctual, versatile and, most of all, creative, so I can bring unique books to life, and do it quickly! Let’s chat about your ideas, budget, and timeline. Pricing varies with complexity and deadlines
