My name is Maša and I am a graphic designer, specialising in editorial design and illustration, currently based in Sežana, Slovenia.

I see design as a tool of endless possibilities that helps me explore and understand the world around me. It helps me look at things from different perspectives and respond to them with meaningful solutions, always taking social responsibility, sustainability and integrity into account.

Also: I like colours, shapes, the smell of paper and the feeling of creating something with my hands; when I can unite all three, I become a truly content human being.

If I can help you with your project please let me know! I am also open to collaborations and other cool, life-changing stuff.
