The purpose of this design for all Challenge was to demonstrate to a wider audience and workshops delegates the impact of involving a diversity of citizens in the process when developing new products, services or environments that include the needs of the widest possible range of people.

Golden Netko award for the Ljubljanske mlekarne (eng. Ljubljana dairy) website
Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia – Netko award, December 2007
The internet is an extremely cost-effective medium and/or communication path. This requires good development of documentation for design and architecture of the site, excellent design, precise execution and optimisation of the website.
In the case of the most known dairy in Slovenia with leading brands such as Mu in the yogurts category, Alpsko Mleko for the milk range, and Jošt on the cheeses market, the external confirmation came shortly after the release of their corporate and product website in 2007 all in one website as the Golden Netko award for the 2007.
My responsibility was business development and project management.
