Hello! I'm Ioana. I am Romanian but I grow up and discovered design in Portugal. I am a graphic designer based in London, at the moment. I just finished my Masters of Arts in Communication Design last year from Ravensbourne. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design from University of Derby.
As a Designer, I produce a variety of different design applications like identity design, typography, book, layout and brochure design, print and editorial design, pattern design, packaging, illustration, image making, craft and artwork. I did challenge current design norms with my last book design by experimenting sensorial design with a craft-based approach for my postgraduate degree show.
