About

Hi, I’m Gabriel Lima. I’m a Fractional Art Director and Surface Designer with 18+ years shaping the visual identity of fashion and luxury brands. I specialize in creating the visual language that defines a brand—from signature collections to 360° campaigns. I’ve collaborated with 40+ brands and produced 500+ designs, earning recognition at São Paulo Fashion Week and international awards. I also integrate generative AI with strategic intent to streamline creative workflows and expand design possibilities.

I’m open to global B2B collaborations, available for remote/global work or relocation, and I’m excited to bring bold, cohesive visual systems to partners worldwide.
