Hi, I am Jakub Žanony, young multidisciplinary designer from Slovakia. Over the years I have developed a strong passion for form and function, I am a strong believer in the importance of compositon and good proportions. My designs are simple and functional with small jokes sprinkled in that makes them more human and personal. In my spare time I mostly enjoy film photography as I love the feeling of using old mechanical cameras and focus on haptics that went into their design. When i am taking photos, I am free to fully immerse myself in the moment and focus purely on composing the frame. Feel free to contact me!

Hotdog Maker

 2020

Colaboration with Filip Sobol
We wanted to elevate the design of today's hot dog machines for something more elegant, but still fun, because it is still a machine for grilling sausages. It is inspired by a walkman. Big pushy buttons and a rotating top with special shapes inside to make the sausages dance.
