In response to the diminishing visibility of artisans compared to mass-market producers, our research focused on creating a guide tailored to local artisans aiming to enhance their online presence. Collaborating with local creator Kateřina Čížková and her team, we embarked on the development of the Něžně k Ženě website. The primary objective was to construct the Něžně k Ženě website while simultaneously learning key factors of what goes in to building a compelling storytelling website. Throughout this study, the team employed interviews, comparative analysis of existing websites, iterative design processes, and content analysis of storytelling strategies. This approach enabled us to compile a user guide specifically designed for local artisans and creatives seeking to articulate their narratives through a website.
