Amsterdam-based creative director, designing identity systems, digital experiences and publications.




Afternoon in the Alps



I’m Renata Šifrar, a Slovenian Creative Director based in Amsterdam. Mainly Afternoon is an independant creative direction practice that works with organisations, cultural initiatives and purpose-driven businesses to design identity systems, digital experiences and publications.

My work explores the relationship between ideas, atmosphere and visual expression, combining simplistic typography, photography and tactile details to create identities with character.

I collaborate closely with a trusted network of designers, developers, photographers and illustrators, bringing together the right expertise when a project calls for it.



I hold an MA in Art Direction/Photography from ECAL in Lausanne, Switzerland, and a degree in Visual Communication from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Before funding Mainly Afternoon, I worked across editorial design, photography and visual commnunication. Today I collaborate with organisations, cultural initiatives and businesses with a distinctive point of view.

Previous and curent collaborators include:

Brand Strategy, Consulting: Mina Arko
Graphic Design: Gaja Mežnarić-Osole
Development: Sepus Noordmans, Giorgos Tsiongas
Motion: Komposter  
Illustration: Nina Mršnik, Tjaša Cizej
