Creative Process
1. Brand Strategy
To gain an understanding of the brand's personality and establish an appropriate creative direction, information is required regarding the brand, its target audience, and competitors. This data is gathered through a brand questionnaire and utilized as guidance throughout the creative process.
2. Let's be creative
After identifying the primary objectives of the brand, an authentic and inspiring mood board is prepared. This board includes real-life examples that effectively depict the brand's personality and align with the brand's vision. From this presentation or inspiration board, preferred examples are chosen to serve as the creative direction for the design deliverables.
3. Design Presentation
Throughout the design phase, a comprehensive design presentation is sent which features the project deliverables within a relevant context. Any necessary revisions are made until the designs meet (and exceed!) your expectations.
4. Awesome design is yours!
Upon approval of the final design concept, all editable files and materials within the project scope are delivered. Additionally, instructions are provided on how to maintain a consistent brand image using the brand guidelines manual.

at melpAs an events producer, the need of an adaptable, super creative, proactive and hands-on graphic designer is a must. From the creation of an event brand, of all the elements involved, the thousands unpredictable last-minute changes to the on-site experience of bringing the elements to life, working with Matija was an absolute bless. I cannot thank him enough for his patience, resilience and passion!

at green fox sandboxI was fortunate to connect with Matija through Dribbble, and he was such a pleasure to work with on my first logo concept that I approached him for a second one! I appreciate his enthusiasm, perspective, and ability to completely change a design's impact with the addition or subtraction of a subtle detail. In addition to the logo development process, he developed dynamic templates for documents and presentation decks as well.
