This is the online portfolio and visual playground of Vedran Besirevic, a 27 year old creative and enthusiastic thinker and designer.

My work, media and choice of tools reflects a simple philosophy in clean, functional and effective visual communication and design concerning both industrial and graphical design.

Personal Background

"Born by east, razed by west" is the story of my life. Originally born in former European country of Yugoslavia I have early developed a passion for design and art. Today I can establish that my work is strongly affected by eastern political and cultural ideologies during the 80s and 90s in this area of Europe.
