Cats of the Interwebs
99designs often works with platform designers in 1-to-1 projects to showcase the wide range of artistic styles from our global community. Our art director, Adrianne, recently commissioned work for our newsletters, email and blog content from Vladanland – a Serbia-based designer with a unique approach to illustration.
Adrianne said, "I immediately responded to Vladan’s illustrations when I first saw his work on 99designs. The geometric elements and the introduction of texture into his work brings depth and interest to even simple illustrations. I loved some of the darker concepts he explores in his work shown in his Behance portfolio which further piqued my interest in working with him."

The golden ratio in design
"We first worked on three images for an email with the theme of Cats of the Interwebs. It turned out even better than I had hoped. I returned to him to work on some illustrations for a promotional email and that turned out great, too. He's easy to work with, takes direction well, requires few edits and really runs with the concepts to create compelling, fun designs that we all love."

"When the decision was made to work with a designer on a monthly basis, he was the first person that came to mind. Vladan has a distinctive style, but it's broad enough to work for all kinds of articles. Happily for us, he was interested, and his work has since become very popular within our team. I'm lucky to get to work with such a talented designer on a regular basis."
