Various materials are united.The elements of the coffee maker are combined with gold, which gives warmth to

the object.

with this experiecne I also increased: commitment to work satisfaction with the performed tasks time management skills understanding of my capabilities efficiency of my work flexibility and adaptability ability to work in high-pressure situations planning and analytical skills dealing with uncertainty effectivnes of work up to deadlines

Highly detailed workflow plan was required for the second stage of the

project. With the design broken into subcomponents and established tasks, I could start to plan my work more efficiently. Based on my chart, plan and adjust other projects work time to workshop access time, in order to produce a satisfactory

prototype.

PhotographyI love to capture the reality. When I look around I see picture frames and compositions that could become both a beautiful

picture or painting.

Graphic DesignSince childhood, newspapers were for me something to watch, not to read. When I grew up it turned out that this passion to the composition of pictures and text is called graphic design.

Fine ArtArt for me is a meditation, a return into the here and now, when I give myself into work. This is even more beautiful, because apart from meditation, I improve my skills and create something

tangible.
