Architecture of Socialist-Era Belgrade is a personal online guide to 20 post-war buildings and complexes across the city, with my own photographs and short texts about each place.

I used IntraNet by João Serafim for the main heading because its blocky, slightly unusual shapes felt right for the subject. It has something of old signage, early computer graphics, and concrete structures in it, without looking like a direct imitation of Yugoslav-era design.

Funnel Sans by NORD ID and Kristian Möller is used for the body text, captions, and navigation. It is simple, readable, and quiet enough not to compete with the photographs or the display type.

I researched, photographed, designed, and built the project myself.
