Dragan used to run his own building company in Serbia and since a heart attack has had to cut down on physical work. In a way this is good news for us because not only is he knowledgeable in construction methods and technology, he is tough and will not stand for shoddy or inferior work.
He has a hidden charm that appears on the rare occasions he is satisfied with a builders work. Sometimes the architects and designers in the office have to face up to Dragan’s practical experience when trying out a new idea or technique.
