About

Hi, I’m Francesca, a freelance graphic designer and art director specializing in book design and visual identity. Over the past twenty years I have led design projects from concept to completion across education, fashion, cosmetics, music, food and hospitality, delivering bold, emotion-driven solutions that align with my clients’ goals. I thrive on creating conceptual, beautiful work with a strong sense of colour, layout and typography.

Now based in Italy after ten years in London, I collaborate with clients internationally and enjoy shaping brands and books that resonate with audiences and celebrate craft.
