Viskas Praeina… Nepraeina!

A memoir from a ninety-year resident of Juodkrantė. The layout had to carry long-form personal reflection without breaking the reading rhythm.

Manekenas

A young woman searching for her own truth, pushed into situations she didn't choose. The book confronts violence, isolation, and self-doubt, without losing its humor along the way.

Žvilgsnis iš maišo

A memoir of a woman from Žemaitija, hardened by a life that never let her walk. Not a sad book — it turns her story into questions about existence itself. The layout kept it restrained, so her own words carried the weight.

Final note

The work that doesn't show in a portfolio is on the phone with a printer organizing the process, or going to check the quality of print in person. That's where books actually get well-made.
