Skills and tools

The swatch fan

  • Brand identity

    Logo, colour, type and usage rules: a brand that speaks with one voice on every surface.

  • Editorial design

    Books, magazines and catalogues; grid, rhythm and readability.

  • Packaging

    Boxes, labels and structural design; solutions that work on the shelf and in the hand.

  • Typography

    Type selection, spacing and hierarchy; the invisible architecture of text.

  • Illustration

    A drawing language owned by the brand; from icon sets to cover illustrations.

  • Social media

    Visual systems that hold up in the feed without breaking the brand language.

  • Motion graphics

    Logo animation, short promos and motion for social.

Tools

  • Illustrator
  • Photoshop
  • InDesign
  • Figma
  • After Effects

  1. Brief

    We write down what we are making, for whom and why.

  2. Research

    The field, the competitors, the references; before facing the blank page.

  3. Sketch

    Many on paper, few on screen: ideas are tried by hand first.

  4. Concept

    One direction, one story; not three options but one right proposal.

  5. Execution

    Every part of the system: files, rules, variations.

  6. Print and delivery

    Proofs, paper selection, press checks; until the piece is in our hands.

About

The printed portrait

Typographic monogram print

Her work treats the grain of paper, the measure of type and the fall of light with the same seriousness; every idea that starts on screen is built with the print in mind.
