V Starem Melinu —
Website Redesign & Identity Refresh
A new digital home for a family restaurant set in a restored 17th-century mill at the edge of Medvednica Nature Park in Zagreb. We refreshed the logo and redesigned the website around the restaurant’s story, its seasonal cuisine and the simplest possible path to a reservation.

Details
-
• A family restaurant in a restored 17th-century mill, with a strong story, seasonal home cooking and a loyal local audience.
• The website needed to match the experience on site — warm, personal and rooted in tradition — and work just as well on a phone.
• The team needed to update menus, wine list and seasonal offers themselves, and guests needed a simple way to book a table. -
• Lead with storytelling: the 17th-century mill, the Hanzec family and northern Croatian home cooking.
• Let photography carry the experience — warm, editorial, close to the table.
• Refresh the logo so it holds up on screen, at small sizes and on social media.
• Build menu and wine list as tabbed, filterable lists that stay readable on a phone.
• Add a current-offer module the team can update themselves, for seasonal menus and events.
• Make “Book a table” the constant call to action, with a simple inquiry form. -
• The new website launched in 2026 together with the refreshed logo and a set of social media visuals, giving the restaurant one consistent look online and on site.
• Increased web traffic and reservations via contact form
-
• Logo refresh — wordmark and monogram, light and dark versions
• Website design — 9 page templates, desktop and mobile
• Menu and wine list system with categories and filters
• Current offer and events module
• Reservation inquiry form
• Social media visuals — Facebook covers and post templates
• Development in collaboration with Mihael Miklošić
Logo — before & after
Before — the original logo, used across print, menus and the old website.
After — a refined wordmark paired with an “S” monogram that works as a stamp on photos, menus and social media.
New website
Nine page templates designed desktop- and mobile-first: story, menu, wines and drinks, current offers, contact and reservations.
Before — the previous website, built in-house on WordPress about ten years earlier.
After — a photography-led site built around the restaurant’s story, menu and reservations.
Social media
Atmosphere
“Htjeli smo da web prenese ono što gosti osjete kad dođu k nama: tradiciju, toplinu i priču starog mlina. Studio Disegnat je to razumio od prvog sastanka. Novi web i osvježeni logo napokon izgledaju kao naš restoran, a jelovnik i ponudu sada lako mijenjamo sami.”
— Josip Hanzec, vlasnik restorana V STAREM MELINU
