Jaka Kordiš (b. 2001) is a multidisciplinary designer based in Ljubljana, Slovenia, working in product design and sustainable practices. He holds a bachelor’s degree in multimedia and is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in industrial design at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, University of Ljubljana.

He is particularly interested in materials, production processes, circular approaches and visual storytelling, with a focus on creating objects and systems that are sustainable, practical, and grounded in reality. Alongside physical making, he enjoys developing renderings and visualizations that communicate products with clarity and sensitivity.

When he is not doing any of that, you will find him ski touring in the Julian Alps during the winter or cycling through the forests of Slovenia in the summer. Occasionally, you will find him on a pottery wheel throwing wobbly pots; more frequently, you will find him eating peanut butter straight from the jar.
