Who am I?
Leona Kordiš.
Architecture is my way of listening – to space, climate, people, and their everyday needs. I don’t design just to shape, but to understand. I believe that good architecture doesn’t speak first – it responds.
Based in Zadar, I work with a particular sensitivity to context, tradition, and places that already carry their own layers. I combine contemporary methods with a sense of real life – designing homes, public spaces, and educational environments that remain quietly present.
I don’t build just to leave a mark – I build to make life better. Quietly, sustainably, with awareness of nature, materials, and the rhythms of daily life.

Who are you?
Which words best describe your personality?
What do you want from your future life?
What do you do, how do you spend your days, and who do you live with?
Does your home have its own rituals? Do you love plants, books, the smell of food? Do you have a dog, a cat, or objects you cherish too much to let go of?
All of this matters to me — because I know it matters to you.
There is no universal solution for space — only a space that feels like it belongs to you.
Everything you share with me becomes the quiet foundation of the architecture we will shape together — I bring my knowledge and care, you bring the spirit that will give it life.
My clients are people who seek more than just a solution.
They value clarity, but also emotion. They like when architecture works, but they need it to resonate — with their way of life, their values, their sense of place.
Sometimes they arrive with a clear vision. Sometimes, just with a feeling.
Whether it's a family home, a public space, an educational facility or a gentle intervention in nature — we search together for meaning, not just in function, but in atmosphere.
If you believe that a space can be a quiet ally to your life — we’ll probably understand each other well.
