Hi, my name is Vuk, a designer and software developer. My double degree in Industrial Design and Software Development has shaped me into a multidisciplinary thinker who sees both the beauty of form and the logic of function. Where design seeks empathy, clarity, and usability, software gives me the tools to make those ideas tangible, dynamic, and intelligent.
Bringing these disciplines together allows me to design holistic user experiences, I approach every challenge with both a designer’s sensitivity and a developer’s precision. My goal is to create solutions that are not only technically sound but also meaningful, intuitive, and socially responsible.
Seedling Plantable Jewelry Beads Necklace
My project, Seedling, tackles Victoria's dual crises. Ecologically, we are Australia's most cleared state (60% cleared ) with "Deteriorating" biodiversity. Culturally, this has created a disconnect, leaving people unsure how to help.
My question: How to turn jewelry into a tangible story that bridges the gap between the desire to help and the place-based knowledge needed for restoration?
Seedling Plantable Jewellery is that tool. It’s a sustainable design intervention that masks a powerful ecological tool inside a desirable, wearable object. It's a system designed to transform environmental care from a passive intention into a direct, tangible action.
