2024

Visual identity, packaging, and communication design for a vintage concept store. Numa is a vintage store with a strong visual identity rooted in repetition, rhythm, and typographic presence. I developed the full design direction for the brand, working across print, packaging, spatial design, and digital elements.

For this project, I collaborated closely with Ika, a contemporary performer whose dynamic presence transforms static objects into living extensions of her body.

Own It
Art Direction
Photography 
2025

Self-initiated photoshoot inspired by the energy of celebrity street photography. I developed the art direction and photography, styling the look around a statement bag and capturing a series that blends casual movement with fashion sensibility. The result is a visual narrative where everyday moments take on an editorial character.

Profile

LinkedIn

I'm Marta, a multidisciplinary designer and visual storyteller working at the intersection of art direction, graphic design, and spatial practices. I shape visual identities, curate experiences, and craft design systems that connect people to ideas.

As a junior art director, I combine conceptual research with hands-on design, creating visual strategies that connect ideas across mediums. I am particularly interested in how aesthetics, storytelling, and digital culture influence the way brands and audiences engage with each other.


I recently graduated with a Master’s in Design from the Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam, where I developed a critical and experimental approach to design and visual communication. Alongside my studies, I have been working as a freelance creative and visual designer, developing projects that span photography, content creation, and design research.
