Hypernoon
2022 – 2023
I co-founded Hypernoon with Jan Henneberg in 2022 with a mission of augmenting our physical garments with wearable digital AR layers to bring a new dimension of self-expression.
Hypernoon
2022 – 2023
We started Hypernoon to bridge digital+physical self-expression. Jan Blunar: Co-founder Jan Henneberg: Co-founder Tomas Skrivanek: Industrial design, 3D Stepan Dlabaja: Development Studio SegraSegra: Fashion design

Soul x Machine
2023 – 2024
Soul x Machine is a speculative design project I started aiming to create a library of open-source prototypes, experiments and principles that function as guiding lights towards optimistic future of humans + ai hardware entities. Currently in the making.
Espresso Systems
2023
Together with other WE3 designers, we've helped Espresso Systems refresh their identity and website to communicate their new mission. Team: Charlota Kolar Blunarova (branding), Martin Egrt (motion design), Rich Cahill (development) and me (web design).
Salsa
2022 – 2023
Salsa helps artists and brands connect with fans and grow their communities via blockchain. I was the first team member responsible for design collaborating with 2 great co-founders on their journey for 8 months. Over this period, we’ve gotten the product from 0 to 1, rebranded (done by Sneha Sanks) and grew it’s team to over 5 people, including a full-time designer.
Succinct
2023
Succinct pivoted and needed a new website to clearly communicate their new vision. During two week sprint, me and Jan Henneberg managed to deliver a new website and develop it using Framer.
XTND
2019
XTND was a kickstarter funded project with an objetive of creating the smartest electric skateboard that learns as you ride. I was responsible for interaction design across the software and hardware.
Quick menu for AR systems
2023
One of my explorations on how might we make the AR/VR interactions more effortless. Inspired by the native navigation patterns in other systems we use (iOS, Androind, computer navigation), I experimented with using different fingers for different item types. This enables maximum effortlelssness and speed, and can be used both as a general OS navigation or in-app menu.

Timeular
2021 – 2022
Besides the main desktop app, we explored new potential ventures with Timeular. One of them was a personal AI productivity assistant helping you to optimize your day for focus time, necessary meetings and mental well-being through automagically planning your day and gamifying the experience.

Jan from WE3 was truly outstanding to work with. He not only delivered everything to the highest standard but also brought creative insights to the table. Despite the challenges that come with running a startup, Jan never missed a beat and seamlessly integrated with our team. There was zero ramping up period – he was productive from day one. Working with Jan was a pleasure on a personal level too, as he was flexible and fit perfectly into our team dynamics.
Helena Gagern
Co-founder
Salsa
In terms of structure, flow, and overall website design, Jan Blunar blew us away with his intuition for the journey we wanted to take people on as they learned about what we do.
