Sneex, a US-based footwear brand founded by Sara Blakely (Spanx). For this launch, I developed the brand identity and visual system, including the logo, packaging, shoe branding, lookbooks, campaign visuals (Vogue US), digital communication, and e-commerce design. The goal was to create a flexible brand language that could support both storytelling and product communication across multiple channels.

I’ve been working on this project in collaboration with such a dream team, between Altanta, Paris and Berlin. We developed a bold and expressive visual identity, pushing the brand’s personality to reflect the desire to dance, move, and run freely without pain in high heels, and above all, with style and joy!

CÂLLAS MILANO is an elevated ready-to-wear brand. I created its rebranding.
Câllas’ new visual identity is playful but sophisticated, built on a logo with rounded curves and sharply defined lines, combined with a monogram whose shapes are inspired by 1970s Italian design ; and also, the joy of experimenting with color pairings and bold, graphic stripes.

Built on a desire to support the indigenous communities of Paraguay and preserve their precious craftsmanship, Amambaih merges sustainability, artisanry and luxury. Each of the brand’s footwear creations draws upon vibrant, luscious fabrics. Handwoven by female artisans in Paraguay. Handcrafted in Spain, Amambaih adheres to all fair trade requirements and introduces a new approach to sustainable luxury.
I conceived the global visual identity, (logo, stationery, packaging, website, digital publications…).
I have had the pleasure to work with a super team based in Spain.
