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!

NFT gallery
Projects created for the exhibition NFT: JUST A BITS OF CODE? How are NFTs in art expanding and focusing on image and video viewing media, and what are their uses in the digital space? I didn't like how the big tech companies are gaining a lot of power by dominating the metaverse. So I created the concept of a personal space (which is NFT) where you can store and view your NFTs and it can be anything, like 3D models or graphic change, how you can see things, etc. without putting on a vr headset. It works like a window into the digital world. Unfortunately, I spent all my time playing with the technology and didn't create the visuals to the level I wanted.
