Daniela DeCristofaro

I specialize in brand identity and UX/UI design. As a designer, I love experimenting with type, colour, and imagery to tell a story and create something memorable. My projects such as Type As Series, VOMIT, and NOMAD reflect my interest in brand identity and experimental typography. Working on these projects has helped me develop my skills and taste as a designer, while teaching me how to build strong visual branding systems. Outside of design, I’m an avid reader and visual journaler. I’ve been drawn to art in different forms from a young age, and those interests naturally find their way into my work. I love to travel, collect design books both old and new, and put together colour palettes and moodboards for future passion projects.
