The assigned topic at school, "Summer Meadow," led me to decide to study summer meadows located at higher altitudes. I made this decision after a trip to the Krkonoše National Park, where I was fascinated by plants adapted to extreme conditions such as lower temperatures, limited availability of nutrients, strong winds, and frequent snow cover during winter months.

I worked on designs for clothing materials on this very topic. All the designs were created manually and then edited in Photoshop. I based my designs on the meadow as a whole and tried to capture all aspects of the meadow.
