New web design for Jídelny.cz

Duration: Dec 2022 – Aug 2023

The largest educational portal on mass catering in Czechia. In addition to publishing recipes, Jidelny.cz organises educational lectures and conferences for gastronomy workers. Despite a large user base and extensive amount of valuable information, the relevance of the portal was fading due to poor responsivity and navigation on the website
