I’m Daniela – a multidisciplinary designer, passionate daydreamer, and creative problem-solver currently based in Portland, Oregon.
My approach
As a designer, I strive to produce forward-looking, expressive work. I have experience researching and designing everything from unique brand identities to complex digital products, websites, and more.
My approach is driven by curiosity. I love the process of taking an idea or business goal, stretching and researching its possibilities, and then consolidating it into tangible, engaging, and user-centered designs.
I believe the best work brings intentional contrasts: familiar yet unique, detailed yet simple, playful yet refined.
Etc.
When I’m not busy Designing™, you might find me picking out my next library book, sketching by the window at my favorite coffee shop, dabbling in a triathlon, or taking an evening stroll with my two beloved dogs (Clover, age 7 and Robin, age 2).
