About Us
NRA Atelier is a multidisciplinary architectural studio established in 2016 by Nikola Radović and Sonja Milićević.
By articulating the overaching vision of the company, the founding duo has established an environment that embodies the concept of crafting an immersive experience.
Through the application of a multidisciplinary design methodology, coupled with extensive creative and technical research, the company has garnered a reputation for crafting exceptional, innovative, thoughtful, and joyful architectural solutions.
Within its brief eight-year history, the NRA has successfully established solid groundwork for achieving its initially envisioned goals, which center around the fundamental principle of making a positive impact.
Such a concept, interwoven with individual perspectives on the harmonious coexistence of arts, culture, and practicality, transformed the NRA’s initial philosophy into a set of guiding principles that shape human interactions with their surroundings.
Although initially deeply personal, these perspectives evolved into collective strengths upon which the practice was founded and continues to stand, albeit more rigorously and distinctly, having surpassed its original foundation.
The NRA has upheld the principle of “Leave Your Mark” as a guiding philosophy in the architectural industry since its beginning. This motto still stands as the most accurate representation of the NRA’s mission, a product of shared values and unanimous agreement on the direction in which the NRA should evolve as a concept.

We approach each project with equal zeal, striving for excellence while adhering to the profession’s ethical norms and sustainability ideals. It is critical that we fully employ our creativity and come up with a solution that stands out, makes an initial impression, and evokes (any kind of) sentiment. Admittedly, some of the famed „punk attitude“ motivates us, in the sense of adopting a distinct perspective on artistic expression, in which architecture is considered primarily as art, but tangible, livable, included, and usable as an ordinary, accessible item. At NRA, we prioritize integrity as the unwavering foundation of our craft. To differentiate ourselves, we embrace unconventional thinking and align our actions with our core values. This approach guides our organizational efforts and ensures we consistently deliver exceptional results.
NRA, a constantly evolving concept, represents individual ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and expressions. Primarily, the acronym stands for Nikola Radović Architecture, as it does today; however, during our formative years, we developed multiple meanings for each letter. Now, it also stands for Nature-Reflecting Architecture, a phrase that best encapsulates our style, philosophy, and core beliefs. As the world rapidly advances technologically, we advocate for moments of reflection, a return to the fundamentals of human existence in harmony with nature. Our highest aspiration is to create exceptional architecture that aligns with natural laws, minimizing intervention in the surrounding environment. Progressive thinking and joyful design with splashes of color are core principles that we proudly emphasize.
WE CREATE EXPERIENCES
The laws of nature are based on experience.
The laws of architecture are made to create an experience.
