The guidelines for the pricing of design services are modeled after modern foreign practices with the aim of offering experts in the design sector and clients from the private and public spheres an example of the implementation of a creative project in both technical and financial terms. They are developed by a community of more than 60 prominent Slovenian designers and design studios.
The guidelines for the performance of design services address the legal, professional and business characteristics of design creation. They are an indispensable tool for the designer's daily work and contact with clients.
