Hello!

KOLABO = collaboration for good design.

The concept of collaboration is symbolized here by letters. They are interconnected, forming a chain, an organic decomposition, a new object that levitates within the format. I created a system for generating ever-new compositions, resulting in several different yet visually consistent images.

You could visit the exhibition at the Bratislava Shopping Center at Kamennné námestie and at the Old Market Hall.

The design of the cards is based on the METTĀ logo and was custom-created according to the vision of METTĀ’s founder. Bold typography combined with a simple and readable design reflects movement, dance, meditation, and the atmosphere of dance classes by Gabriela Scherfel.

There are 39 cards in total, divided into 5 groups, each containing a different concept.

I won the competition for the visual identity of the Triennale of Poster Trnava 2025! I am grateful for the opportunity to work on this event, which I have been following since its inception.

What is my winning concept about? The space designated for poster installations is projected into a 2D space as the key visual for TPT.

In reality, these are various systems and walls that create a path for visitors through the exhibition. In the visual identity, they become graphic and structural elements.

These elements are then combined into ever-new compositions. Their arrangement changes, creating a modular system of elements.

The content of the walls is revealed to the visitor only at the exhibition locations; until then, the elements carry the abbreviation “TPT.” This abbreviation already feels well-established and recognizable, but the full name “Triennale of Poster Trnava 2025” is also repeated.

The visual exists in different color versions and compositions, which can be assigned to the different phases of the event.

The font with the symbolic name Filler by Samo Čarnoky fills the module spaces and adapts to their width. The text font by Setup Type lightens Filler and provides a balanced contrast between the information on the visual.

On social media, the visual appears in various versions – from monochrome to full color. This can also be used to present the different phases of the Triennale.

For merchandise, I considered the usability of these items even after the event ends. Therefore, the visual is communicated in a stylized, abbreviated way, mainly using color blocks.

The grand opening took place on November 28, 2025, at the Synagogue in Trnava.

The Bratislava – Petržalka district is the largest housing estate in Central Europe. And you might not know that photographer Juraj Bartoš was among its first residents. The book Juraj Bartoš: Petržalka presents a comprehensively compiled archive of photographs from Petržalka spanning 1977–2004, the period during which the author lived in this housing estate.

What I particularly enjoy is Bartoš’s unique sense of humor, which is present throughout. I have been a fan of his work for many years.

A dream team worked on this book:

Zuzana Pustaiová, photographer and visual artist, lecturer and image editor, recipient of multiple photography awards. @zuzanapustaiova

Martin Kleibl, photographer, curator, founder of OZ Konduktor, an organization dedicated to researching Petržalka as well as preserving its artistic works. He also founded and leads @docasnykulturnypriestor

I handled the design and prepared the book for printing.

I had a lot of fun with this project and created Christmas characters that guide visitors through the space at the Urban Market event.

This was wonderful. This time, Urban Market took place at the Market Hall on Trnavské mýto. This event is always held in a special location, but the Market Hall space filled me with absolute excitement. An architectural icon with a few surviving businesses is opening its doors to the public once again—and it’s here for us. It was amazing to watch the interactions between the Market Hall locals and Generation Z.

The visual identity for Urban Market depicts the Market Hall as the icon it truly is. Its distinctive mood runs consistently across all outputs. You’ll even find it on the Christmas wrapping paper.

Throughout the weekend, visitors could enjoy the traditionally curated sales exhibition of local independent fashion, design, and art, complemented by the Urban Food Park and a full program of activities for both children and adults.

More information can be found at www.urbanmarket.sk.

The visual identity of KOLABO 2024 is a play with type and its modification. The goal isn’t necessarily for the word KOLABO to be readable. Here, it becomes a decorative element, deconstructed into individual shapes. The identity continues to evolve in design applications.

Gift boxes for Curaprox Hydrosonic Toothbrush, 2023

Photo credits: ALLT STUDIO for Curaprox Slovakia

This edition of toothbrushes is inspired by the ‘80s – vibrant, neon colours, the vibe and architecture of the 1980s bars, pubs and diners, the flashy, flamboyant interiors and bold, eclectic fashion accessories and styles.

I wanted to capture the carefree and vibrant atmosphere of this era and bring it back into our homes and bathrooms.

I wanted to show you a glimpse of the ‘80s atmosphere, a time that has long gone, by designing this tiny time-travel souvenir.

Graphic artworks created for Čierne diery, 2016 – 2024

Čierne diery promoting the built heritage of Slovakia grew out to be one of the most popular initiatives of the country in only a few years. Old industrial buildings, factories, rural mansions and tunnels that we wouldn’t find on any maps even if we tried – they explore them and tell us about it.

https://danielkordik.bandcamp.com/album/ocela

Ocela can be a dance album if you want it to be, but above that, it is an album about dancing. The second instalment in a planned trilogy, it regards dance as a form of pathmaking, a physical chronology of a journey. Its voyager is the eponymous Ocela // an invented feminine form of the word steel // who wields both strength and brittleness. While the first album (Spojky Čiary) focused on Ocela’s inception and youth, here she is mature // on a resolute trajectory between birth and passing away.

Ocela is not a concept album // unless you want it to be // but it is an album built around beats. While there is a loose precedent for rhythms in the two-piece project Jamka, the trilogy also marks Daniel Kordik’s solo return to melodical composition. On this record, Ocela dances on her orbits in patterns that are harmonious but always slightly elliptic. Each song on the album travels with its own varying velocity, before it abruptly finds itself at the subjective beginning. Then it goes through further revolutions, with determination bordering on a lack of choice.

Recorded live onto a 4-track before mixing, Ocela is unlike its predecessor in that it shuns any form of field recording, and was instead made using only hardware (Elektron Octatrack MK1, Elektron Digitone, Jomox Mbase01).

Daniel Kordik, also known as Iskra, is one half of Jamka, member of the Urbsounds Collective, co-founder of Earshots Recordings and Ocela is his second release on the melodramatic label Weltschmerzen.

Biela noc / White Night 2017
Visual identity of the contemporary art festival

Biela noc / White Night is the biggest and most visited contemporary art festival in Slovakia.

White Night embodies the desire to (re)discover urban environment which is given a new dimension through art. A city is transformed into an interactive space whose usual nocturnal cycle ceases to exist for a few hours. Contemporary art breathes life into the city at night and the night thus becomes “white”.

White Night is a prestigious international art project aimed at bringing near to the general public not only contemporary art forms, but also untraditional, unknown and important spots of big European cities. 

I was lucky enough to be part of the White Night team again. My aim was to create a strong, significant and recognizable identity, that won't be lost in the advertising spam all over the city. I came up with visual, that shows deconstructed lights and their collision in some alternative universe. It's very abstract but it appeals spectator's imagination and supports his expectation of real installations. 

My work consisted from all print (citylights, billboards, flyers, maps, signs, merchandise, etc...) as well as digital outputs (webdesign, application design, banners...)

Collaboration with my love-brand Curaprox Slovensko. A toothbrush design and package design of the new duo-pack. 

Package design: First design reflects the topic “Smile”. I illustrated few nice and colourful things that evoke smile or just a good emotion. All together they create vibrant structure. Second design is created of simple and minimalistic shapes which will make your toothbrushing very pleasant – not only for teeth but also for your eyes. 

Brush itself is also very special: each tuft is different colour that matches the package illustration. It communicates the simplicity and geometry of CURAPROX.

After very successful release, we decided to cooperate on the CURAPROX summer campaign at Pohoda Festival. I designed all deliverables, from tent design to merchandising. All design was connected with the duo-pack design, so it supported the sale. 

In the meantime, my design got international licence! Now you can probably buy it in your country too!

You can get these products online or at CURAPROX Smile Shops or DM drugstores.

Identity of Slovak travel agency STEY, 2017

Most of us are dedicated to the city life. Dealing with deadlines, appointments, hurrying on the everyday basis. Travel in Slovakia besides modern resorts and attractions offers an escape from hectic elements of today´s humankind. It offers places undiscovered yet, non-mass without crowds.

Visual identity of the contemporary art festival White Night

Biela noc / Nuit Blanche / White Night is the biggest and the most visited festival of the contemporary art in Slovakia. Biela noc materialises the desire to (again) discover a city environment which is given a new dimension via art. A city becomes an interactive space for one night and its normal night cycle ceases to exist for a few hours. Music and light installations of contemporary art will breathe life into the city night and therefore the night becomes “white”. White Night Slovakia took place in two cities – Bratislava, the capital and Košice – the second biggest city in the east of Slovakia. My aim was to create a strong, significant and recognizable identity, that won't be lost in the advertising spam all over the city. I didn't choose the obvious black, I didn't choose blue. I came up with violet, which symbolizes the magical transition between day and night and yet it is still the colour of night, when filled with lights. The visual is also based on the monuments of the city, which I converted into the icons. At the same time these icons represented the actual venues where White Night events took place.

Tapedrawing, 2010 – 2015

I used electrical tape as a medium in my drawing technique. Using the tape, I created captivating wall images revealing 3D illusions of space and drawings that have their own stories. My taped wall images always started off a game with the audience that has become involved in creating their meaning. Sometimes I created site-specific drawings for commercial projects as well.
