Ekranoplane Project type _ Ekranoplane design Duration _ 12 months Year _ 2010
Top view
Front view
Ekranoplane is a hybrid between a ship and an airplane. This invention originated in Russia and spread throughout the world. It is faster than a ship and has a higher carrying capacity than an airplane. It exploits the benefits of the ground effect which is formed during low altitude flights above flat surfaces such as water bodies. High waves present a major problem, therefore its use remains limited. Our task was to create a sports watercraft for two persons with great manouverability. This project concentrated mainly on the design solution with emphasis on an attractive visual expression for the presentation of the concept. During this project we had the opportunity to exercise through to a conceptual drawing and gather valuable experience with presentations in front of large audiences.

Stereoscopic visualization, the depth of the image can be perceived using blue-red 3D glasses.
O2 Slovakia company concentrates on mobile and data services. Its target group includes mainly young people and thus it attempts to use cutting edge technologies in the advertisement of its pro ducts. The sales support of its product called O2 Filip was based on 3D technology (stereoscopic visualization). The advertisement story took place in an Entertainment park and our task was to create a virtual environment for the purpose of the web presentation. After entering the park we board a train which symbolizes never ending calling possibility. At individual theme stops we can read about the special offers on call, text message and data transfer rates. At the end we can either take another ride or use a photostand to create our own 3D picture. During the course of this project we collected precious experience in creating 3D effects and video processing using remote servers.

Menhard Project type _ Corporate identity Duration _1 month Year _ 2010
Final design of logo Hotel Menhard.
Menhard s.r.o. is a company making business in tourism. The name Menhard is of German origin and was used as a name of the village Vrbov in 12th Century. The village of this name is situated at the foot of the Hith Tatras and thermal springs are its main attraction. We were asked to create the visual expression of the Menhard company. At first we created the logo, inspired by the town‘s rich history, healing springs and the Tatra Mountains. In order to express the historical spirit of the place we used a coat of arms motif. The thermal waters are incorporated as blue reflective color. The font type reflects local society and there is a light silhouette of the Tatra Mountains in the background. In order to remain true to the main theme, we chose red color, which is spread on the village‘s coat of arms. The main benefit of this project to the GDA GROUP was the opportunity to experience the creation of a corporate identity.

Part of a film showing the most common money saving ways of people.
Academy of Financial Literacy is a broker company concentrating on education and practice in financial business. The main objective of the company is to provide high quality education, therefore great emphasis is laid upon different tools which help accomplish this aim. Educational videos are amongst them. In order to lead clients to better understanding of the studied matter, the academy concentrates on animated forms of expressing ideas. The company approached us with a request of creating an animated film. The film scenes were drawn and the subsequent animation, editing and sound effects were performed using computer technology. Some objects were animated using classical drawing methods, but this could not be applied to the whole film due to its great complexity. The film’s story was divided into two parts, where the first illustrates several real life situations and the other displays chart comparisons. This project allowed us to experience the creation of an animated film and cooperate with picture and sound editing teams.

Telgárt Project type _ Hand drawn visualization of a hotel Duration _ 3 months Year _ 2012
Hand drawn ground plan of the object.
Telgárt Appartments is a construction development company dealing with the construction of recreational facilities. Among their estates stands out a hotel set in the marvellous natural scenery of the Low Tatras. The company had an idea of creating a unique hand drawn presentation that would distinguish them from their rivals. They inquired with us about the possibility of creating a graphic layout of the facade, interior and final visualization. The presented view must have included all dominant features in the surroundings including a bridge, the peak Kráľova hoľa and the adjacent ski slope. After digital prepress of the leading lines all colors were layed on using marker pens. The wood textures, facade and trees were created and then we used smearing charcoal to mark snow banks. In the final phase of the sketch we touched up the atmosphere with dry pastels. This project provided a valuable experience in creating hand drawn visualizations.

Naturally, the designs should have included carbon fibre. Initially, the design was handsketched and the approved sketch was vectorized. The whole project was an invaluable opportunity to gather experience in creating car print designs and digital graphics
