I met Dora a few years ago when I needed help while I was in Split for a research project. I needed an interpreter and at the same time a capable organizer who knows how to deal with people and knows the local environment. Her approach was extremely professional and precise. I could not have completed the project without her help, and I am still grateful to her.

Working with Dora, Dlightful Services, for my photography exhibition in Zagreb was an absolute pleasure. From the very beginning, her professionalism and dedication stood out. She was incredibly quick to respond to any inquiries, which made communication smooth and stress-free throughout the entire process. :))

What truly impressed me was her attention to detail, and the way she curated the flow of the exhibition brought out the best in my work. She took the time to understand my vision and executed it flawlessly, enhancing the overall narrative of the collection.

The curatorial text she provided was another standout aspect. It was beautifully written, insightful, and perfectly captured the essence of my work. Her ability to articulate the deeper themes is something really impressive.

Dora went above and beyond to ensure every element of the exhibition—from the layout to the text—was perfect.

If you are looking for a curator who is not only professional but also genuinely passionate about their work, I cannot recommend Dora enough. Thank you.:)

We had a wonderful experience collaborating with DLightful Services, who designed the tourist map of Sutivan. Their professionalism and meticulous attention to detail were exceptional, resulting in an outcome that exceeded our expectations. The DLightful Services team went the extra mile to ensure that visitors exploring Sutivan have an engaging and user-friendly experience. Their dedication and efforts were truly outstanding, and communicating with them was simple and quick.
I highly recommend her to everyone, and I’m sure we’ll continue collaborating on future projects.

Given the short deadlines we had, I was very happy when Dora agreed to proofread a professional text in English in the field of smart cities. She did the proofreading thoroughly and very professionally, and with a few specific questions, she immediately detected what kind of result we wanted. In every interaction, she was quick to respond and pleasant to communicate with. She met all the deadlines, and we are very satisfied with the final result, considering that she significantly improved the quality of the text written by different authors. We will recommend Dora and work with her again in the future.

I worked with Dora on preparing my exhibition “Zavičaj kao vrelo nadahnuća” organized by the Meštrović Gallery in Split. Dora did a great job in creating the complete and coherent graphic design of the exhibition that expresses the spirit of the topic, which is folklore and tradition. It was very pleasant to work with her as she is very detail-oriented and punctual, and she met the deadline with no problem. What I liked the most was that she was very patient and respected my ideas and visions from the start until the end of our collaboration. She has a very humanistic approach to work and collaboration. Highly recommend! :)

Very professional approach! They are well organized and know their job!
DLightful Services does art management for me, I am very satisfied and I think this is my best investment! Since I have been working with them, I have more time to work in the studio.

I recently had the pleasure of working with DLightful Services, owned by the incredibly talented Dora Derado Giljanovic, to promote my online Business English teaching and my first book. I am truly amazed by the wide range and depth of Dora’s knowledge in various areas such as web design, graphic design, SEO, social media, and project management, to name a few.

Dora’s expertise is complemented by her impeccable organization, professionalism, attention to detail, and remarkable efficiency. Her young team mirrors her dedication and drive, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I am absolutely delighted with the results and the process.

If I could give Dora and her team a 10-star review, I would, but I’ll gladly settle for giving them a glowing 5-star recommendation. For anyone in need of top-notch marketing services, look no further than DLightful Services. You will be delighted with the results!

I’ve worked with Dora on several different projects and have had the chance to follow her professional growth over the several years that we’ve known each other. With regards to her work ethic, I can only say that she is extremely professional and talented and that I can completely relax when we’re working together because I know that everything will be done on time and per our agreement. Behind the façade of professionality is a really wonderful person that’s easy to talk to and in whose presence I like to be, who I like to exchange opinions with and consult. I’d recommend working with Dora to everyone because she truly is professional and motivated when it comes to the work she does.

Dora Derado Giljanović performed the proofreading of an English-language academic book edited by me. Although the challenge was immense – the book contained texts by non-native-speaking authors from different countries and from a variety of academic traditions, Dora and her team managed brilliantly. Their thoroughness and commitment cannot be overstated. Dora dealt with each text with great insight, both from a linguistic and academic point of view. She caught many errors that would have escaped my attention! In addition, she kept up a pleasant correspondence with the authors, which helped to bring the whole six-month project to a happy conclusion. I would highly recommend working with Dora on proofreading, especially to anyone dealing with art and related subjects.

We had the opportunity to work with Dora and her business DLightful Services at several exhibitions, and the experience was extremely positive. As a curator, Dora demonstrated a high level of professionalism, expertise and creativity. We especially appreciate her collaboration with artists, where she presented their work with great attention and understanding.
In addition to curatorial work, Dora helped us improve the quality of our website.
We recommend DLightful Services to anyone looking for expertise, commitment, creativity and a professional approach.

I would recommend DLightful’s translation services to everyone. Apart from the fact that Dora Derado is a great and experienced translator, English is her mother tongue. Her being an art historian contributed to the quality of the professional translation of a text which was to be included in my dissertation in the field of contemporary art. Our communication was pleasant, quick, and easy. I’ll definitely turn to her for future translation needs.

As a foreigner, I had a complex immigration issue that required a translator. Dora met with me and took the time to fully understand my situation. When it came time to meet with the authorities, she wasn’t just a translator, she was also my advocate. She understands the local customs and culture and without her translating and assisting me through the process, I’m convinced things would have turned out badly for me. She is highly professional and personable. I was very lucky to have found her.

As an artist, I have worked with Dora Derado who was my curator for a couple of exhibition projects. I have experienced her as attentive to all the details, very punctual, proactive, and organised.
I found Dora’s writing style in Croatian and English academic, informed, scientific, but underlined by her personal intuition and feminine warmth that embraced the artworks and my story; I felt understood, and well and sensitivity represented.

I worked with Dora Derado for a few months in 2019 and 2020. She was tasked with translating over a hundred pages of literary text into English. My criteria, when it comes to translating, were quite high and I expected the translation to be in the spirit of the English language, which is where Dora demonstrated great knowledge and flexibility. Our communication was great, and the translations were typically accepted after a few iterations and revisions. Dora is very professional and always stuck to the deadlines we agreed on. Working with her was a pleasure and I can happily recommend her because of her excellent knowledge of the English language, her detail-oriented character, professionality, flexibility, and wonderful communication skills.

The Association of Artists has employed Dora Derado several times to curate exhibitions and translate specialized texts. We were impressed every time by the work ethic of this versatile professional who is both creative and systematic, efficient and relaxed, as well as detail-oriented and comprehensive in her approach to work, regardless of whether she’s working on large group exhibitions that she conceptualized, judged, and curated; solo exhibitions of eminent artists or young, unaffirmed artists; translating complex texts or simple, pedagogically-designed informative pieces. Either way, she is a collaborator to wish for.

Rugby Club Nada Split and Dora Derado began their collaboration in 2013. In its efforts to take a solid step forward in its visual appearance, the Club employed Ms. Derado to create various visual designs such as posters, tickets, booklets, and seasonal greeting cards. Dora’s precision, reliability, professionality, and imaginativeness add a whole new dimension to the Club which, through its work, aims to keep up with the current times in which recognizability plays a key role in one’s marketing activity.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dora Derado Giljanović for anyone seeking an exceptional graphic design experience. Working with her on our recent project was an absolute pleasure. Dora seamlessly combined creativity with technical expertise, delivering a document that not only met but exceeded my expectations. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and innovative approach make her a standout professional in the field. I am confident that anyone choosing Dora and DLightful Services will be delighted (no pun intended!) with the results and the enjoyable collaboration experience.
