If you were ever naming a baby, you know it is an interesting phenomenon. Process is similar to giving birth - painful and long-lasting - but when you come up with a good name, there is no greater joy. Also, it sounds like the most logical choice (which could be done by anyone, of course). Great name is not necessarily a guarantee for the great business, just like not every Bill, Mark or Donald would become a billionaire. But a badly chosen name could in fact do you harm.

Welcome to one of the most neglected design categories (in Croatia). You know when you enter a hospital and don’t know where the ward you’re looking for is and after 30 minutes of wandering through the hallways, somewhere in the dark corner behind the elevator you come accross the A4 white paper with a sign written in pen: “Blood lab.

Not everything can exist only in cloud, sometimes you need good old paper. After surprisingly long discussion, we have decided to put everything up to 8 pages in print category, and consider larger volumes publications. So, bookmark is a printed material that you use in books and publications. Materials from this categories are mostly done as parts of visual identities but they sometimes come as an individual project. Besides bookmarks, print category includes invitation, flyers, posters, ads, etc.

The wine label can knock you off your feet much sooner than the wine can. And yes, we know wines shouldn’t be judged by its label, but next to price it is the only thing we amateurs can relate to, since fruity aromas and behaviors of wine flies don’t make much sense. The content is essential without doubt - whether it’s bottled, bagged, canned or boxed - but when buying for the first time the user often judges the content by its packaging
