Strategy without understanding is guesswork. And understanding takes time — more than a brief, more than a kick-off call. It takes the kind of conversation where founders say the thing they haven't said out loud yet. That's where the real work begins.

Studio Arata is a one-woman creative studio — with a trusted network of local creatives brought in when the project calls for it. I work with small and upcoming brands who are ready to get serious about who they are and how they show up. Not just once. Throughout.

I come in as a creative and strategic partner. The process is rigorous before it is visual. We figure out what the brand actually is before we decide what it looks like. From there, I take it as far as it needs to go — identity, guidelines, copy, web, photography, film.

Based in Lisbon. Working with brands everywhere.
