Hello, I'm Jovana!
An interdisciplinary designer
and a curious researcher.
I currently work a service and graphic designer, running a small studio in Croatia.
I work in different fields of designs, illustration and textile crafts.
My main interests are in social design, transition design and research. I believe design offers number of tools and constructive methodologies that can make it a key role in the process of creating any progressive change.
