The goal of the master's thesis was designing of illustrations, development of typeface for young readers and preparation of print publication and interactive PDF about Žirovnica path of cultural heritage adapted for the first triad. Firstly, we studied background of typography, illustrations and connection of both elements in the theoretical part. Furthermore, we performed online survey and user experience verification in the experimental part of the thesis. The making of the printed publication and the interactive PDF (the main part of the thesis) was based on the results of the online survey in which children of the first triad, parents, educators, psychologists and design students participated. We made the text on the basis of the booklet on the Žirovnica path of cultural heritage, published in 2013 by the primary school Žirovnica. We added various tasks adapted to the children's age to the latter. After we made the final products, we checked the user experience. It was carried out with the help of the children of the first triad from the primary school Žirovnica.
As part of the written master's thesis, the emphasis was on the gradual development of authorial illustrations, typeface and the concept of the publication, as well as an interactive PDF. The usable value of the final products is high, as they will be used by the Žirovnica Institute for Tourism and Culture on the largest Slovenian holiday, on 8 February 2022.
