Event report

Ana Ivanović of the University of Montenegro spent an intensive and productive week at Academia from 12 to 16 May 2025, working on a joint design project focused on practical application, interdisciplinary collaboration and critical thinking about accessibility and visual communication.

The first day began with presentations: Ana presented her portfolio and gave a lecture on the basic principles of graphic design, after which each student group summarised its progress. The main task was to develop a complete visual identity for the organisation A Piece of Happiness; each of the three groups also had its own focus – website development, print materials, and signage and wayfinding.

The second day was devoted to a participatory lecture on accessible design – what it means, why it matters and how inclusive design thinking can be integrated into practical results – after which each group reassessed its work. For the rest of the week all groups worked together in one classroom, enabling constant critique and mutual support.

On the final day the results were presented via Zoom to the clients abroad, followed by a joint feedback and reflection session with graphic design instructor Sara Božanić, the students and Ana Ivanović – a creatively fruitful week full of meaningful exchange.
