Uniting and Empowering the Next Generation of Designers

Perspektiva emerged from a clear need: Bulgaria’s design talent was fragmented, undervalued, and often isolated. Designers lacked a supportive network, access to business skills, and a space to share knowledge or find meaningful work. The vision was bold-to build a thriving, inclusive hub where designers could learn, connect, and launch their careers together.

The Challenge

• Fragmentation: Designers operated in silos, with little collaboration or mentorship.

• Skill Gaps: Many lacked business, freelancing, and portfolio-building know-how.

• Visibility: Local talent struggled to find clients or showcase their work.

• Community Fatigue: Previous attempts at design groups fizzled due to lack of engagement or clear value.

The Solution / Our Approach

KICKFLIP partnered with Perspektiva’s founders to co-create a vibrant, sustainable community platform:

• Brand Identity: Crafted a bold, welcoming brand that stands for creative independence and mutual support.

• Digital Platform: Built an intuitive website featuring resources, a job/project board, event calendar, and member directory.

• Events & Workshops: Launched regular webinars, portfolio reviews, and in-person meetups to foster learning and networking.

• Mentorship Program: Matched experienced designers with newcomers for skill-building and career guidance.

• Freelance Masterclass: Developed a flagship course empowering designers to thrive as independent professionals.
