Layout Design
For the University of Zadar (UNIZD), we worked on the fifth report for 2026, created as part of the scientific research project “The Nature and Determinants of Sexting Among Adolescents and Young Adults: A Cross-Cultural Study (SextYouth)”.
The report is titled “Biopsychological Correlates of Sexting Among Adolescents and Young Adults: The Role of Testosterone, Emotional Regulation and Executive Functions”, and our role included text layout and cover design. The goal was to give complex scientific content a clear, structured and visually coherent form, appropriate for an academic publication and the subject of the research.
We designed the layout with an emphasis on readability, page rhythm, and a clear hierarchy of information. Special attention was given to typographic consistency, the relationship between text and white space, and the functional arrangement of elements, so that the content is easy to follow while maintaining a professional, research-oriented character.

Book Cover Design
For the cover, we developed a minimalist visual solution that connects the theme of digital communication with the psychological and biopsychological aspects of the research. The dark, calm background creates a serious and contemporary tone, while the linear illustration in a warm contrasting color adds clarity and symbolic value.
The central motif consists of two profiles facing each other, integrated with the outline of a smartphone and a message bubble. This visually brings together interpersonal communication, the digital space, and emotional exchange, key concepts related to the topic of sexting among adolescents and young adults.
The design is intentionally restrained, without unnecessary details, in order to preserve the scientific seriousness of the report while also creating a recognizable, modern impression. The linear elements, dark color base, and precisely positioned typography create a cover that clearly communicates the theme of the project while functioning as part of the report’s broader visual identity.
