KoenPack B.V.

This summer has been veeeery busy! 

I became part of the KoenPack Design Studio in Alsmeer voor almost the last 3 months. KoenPack is a marketleader in de B2B packaging business for the flower and plants farming industry.

In connection with the Annual International Flower Fair (Royal FloraHolland in Alsmeer), I reinforced the team and helped with the making of their new catalogue, over 200 pages of products. 

It was great to experience the Dutch working week of such a model company, next to nice collegues, professional designers, experts in packaging and not to mention being part of the volleyball team at the staff party! 

Thank you KoenPack B.V. for this opportunity!

Speedway Museum Exhibition Design

Exhibition Design

Exhibition Design of a small Museum

We designed and layout in only 2 weeks one room from the local library and transformed it in a mini-museum in 2009 relating the history and champions of Speedway in Slovenia and over the World. I designed all informative panels and modernized the retro Speedway logo. On the special opening day full of emotions came former legends of Speedway from all over Slovenia to cut the ribbon and celebrate this small part of Slovene history, for which I had the privilege to bring my creativity. 

The Museum is still open and can be visited on request.

Translation Shoe webshop in Amsterdam

21/09/2018 By OUI Dizajn

Translation of Shoe products and blogs (from English to French)

The Brief

My client had a good running website and an online shop selling a unique American brand of leather shoes. I was asked to translate all content from English to French, not only the products but also the blogposts. In this way he could reach the non English-speaking French (potential) customers. He aims to the long term and plans to expand to other countries outside the Netherlands as the unique and official reseller in the whole Europe.

My Approach

I was new to the shoe industry and leather goods but I could feel the passion and the dream that my client was living so far when starting his shop 7 years ago in the heart of Amsterdam. That is what brought me to accept the challenge and dive deeply into the shoe jargon I needed to study to perform my translations. Luckily the website was built with WordPress and was running well. I could immediately add value to my services by processing all translation texts into the website directly. Saving indeed a lot of time to my client! After months, there was even no need for him to prepare and send me the texts in separate documents, just mentionning what had been added was enough, I could see new articles and products directly in the WordPress administration dashboard of the website.

The Results

The whole website is running fully in French, alike the original English site, and each item can be ordered entirely in French language. Minor typos, and dead links that I see in the source pages are also corrected. All blog stories are in a very short time translated and published in French on my client’s request. It is rewarding to have created such a long-term collaboration. Check the website here: US Shoe Shop in Amsterdam

Business coaching translation website

21/09/2018 By OUI Dizajn

Translating content for a Business coaching and consulting website

The Brief

During a family visit in Montreal, Canada, I met Stephane and we had a good talk about our respective work. I went back to Europe and he contacted me shortly after about his need to translate his website in English.
For those who have never been to Montreal, it is surprising to see everything and everywhere translated in 2 languages, I mean also advertisement in the streets and packages from products which are in Canadian French and in English, the labels are designed with double space for texts and slogans. Even famous names of fast-food chains are localized in French!

My Approach

I read Stephane’s website entirely in French and as usual did my reseach in his field of expertise: Coaching and Consulting for Corporates. I then performed my translation in English and delivered the texts for the deadline agreed. He then processed my texts onto his website.

The Result

My client has a bilingual website perfectly synchronised in English and French.

Hardcover Books – Slovene Publisher

11/09/2018 By OUI Dizajn

Hardcover Books

Project 17

For nearly 4 years, I was the inhouse graphic designer for a book publishing not-for-profit company and newspaper editor.

17 books were published (themes: history, biography, poetry, cooking, sport, etc …), mostly hardcovers. I also designed and did the layout of articles and advertising spaces in the newspaper (Posavski Obzornik, www.posavje.info), photography (book covers, portraits), designed the corporate identity of the company itself (business cards, marketing dossier, logos, banners for events, flags, street billboards, etc…).

I built also with Joomla a complete website www.neviodunum.si and was in charge of the original creation, design and development of the web portal of the Institute. Some of the books are still for sale by the publisher on its current website:

Wild Animal Shelter

11/09/2018 By OUI Dizajn

Wild Animal Shelter in Amsterdam

The Brief

My client had an old HTML static website active on the main URL, and had a WordPress website designed and built by another outsourcer sitting on a sub-domain and waiting to be transferred to the main server and updated. The client had no knowledge whatsoever with web development and WordPress in general. However they wanted for long their modern website to be launched and show up on the main URL. They’d be looking for someone to help them with launching their website and adding some functionalities before the annual open day. As a new volunteer working with the animals by the shelter by chance I heard and ask about the situation. I found out quickly their new website was done in WordPress, so I proposed my time and services.

My Approach

Since we were talking about a takeover of an existing website, the first part of the task included some research. I had to get in touch with the company who had designed and developed their new website. The relationship had started a few years back, yet there was nothing new to be seen, just an amateur html website that was still live on their web address. I then researched what hosting package the client had bought, and ask the host for credentials. From that point, I went through the technical part of the site construction, the backend, to see how the site was built and which functionalities or plugins were installed. I added a security certificate. I then exported the website to the main URL and set up a Maintenance page to have the site show offline. I then started to make the changes and improvement requested but also some technical optimization. I integrated a Donation functionality with online payment. Once the main changes done and the legal requirements for an online presence fulfilled, I sat with the client to go through each page, until we agreed to set the website Live.

The Results

Before the Open Day, the website was Live and donations from visitors started to get recorded. We agree then that I would go on with the Maintenance and Development of the website. Check out the result: Animal Shelter De Toevlucht
