Fragments

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This project revisits personal chronicles and uses fragmentation, typography, rhythm, and silence to transform written language into visual material. In doing so, it explores memory, identity, and change.

The series understands intimacy as a system: how it forms, collapses, and dissolves. Emotional states are translated into visual structures, revealing the concept and feeling of each text as well as the connections between them.

Some projects that I did to stay creative and enjoy my free time :)

My own illustrated deck of cards

Mon, 01 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This art project is the most important one to me :)

Since I was a little girl, I have this memory of my whole family gathered around a table playing cards. Even if you weren’t related by blood, you had to learn how to handle a deck to be considered a close friend or a true member of the family.

I wanted something that would challenge me and take me back to this tender place in my heart. This deck honors that tradition; creating art that people can use to make beautiful memories, just like the ones I have with my family.

Grain & Bohne

Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Grain&Bohne is a contemporary coffee shop’s inspired by the bilingual culture of Biel/Bienne, Switzerland. The project explores the duality between French and German (reflected in the brand name itself) to create a young, welcoming and culturally driven visual identity.

Aupinard's Visual Identity

Sat, 08 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This study-project presents a visual identity for Aupinard’s album Pluie, Montagnes et Soleil. The design blends soft indie aesthetics with warm bossa nova influences, using an earthy color palette, expressive typography, and fluid line illustrations.

The guitar symbol and sun-mountain iconography form the core of the identity, appearing across album packaging, social media assets, tour posters, and merchandise concepts. The result is a calm, melodic visual system that reflects the intimate, atmospheric mood of Aupinard’s music.
