Hi, my name is Margarita Mileva. I am a licensed architect and artist living and working in New York. I enjoy working across both art and architectural projects, exploring the dialogue between creative expression and the built environment. I hope you will find my designs and ideas engaging, inspiring, and thought-provoking.

Enjoy!
