Hi!
My name is Miranda, and I am a graphic designer
and illustrator.
I was born in Buenos Aires, and graduated from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA).
I am a lover of books, colours, typography, and form.
As a designer, I work in whole projects that go from designing small elements, such as a brand, to designing spaces, products, books, brochures or fabrics, among others.
As an illustrator, I have worked for different publishing houses illustrating both books and schoolbooks. I have also illustrated different types of products, such as mugs, fabrics, T-shirts, diaries, notebooks, and vinyl stickers.
When someone tells me a story, I picture it in my mind as a melody that translates into images and colours.
What I like most about my career is that it allows me to recreate the world by telling new things and expressing them in a different way. I like being part of that transformation.
