About

Hi, my name is Paula. I’m a designer based in Amsterdam with a strong focus on visual storytelling and digital experimentation. I like to create graphic systems that communicate in a clear way, often grounded in narratives that feel a little raw and offbeat. My work is rooted in real-world elements — textures, colors, sounds, symbols — translated into bold, expressive narratives. I design to find new paths, spark dialogue, and carry meaning beyond.

Outside of client work, I love drawing, making collages, taking photos, and all kinds of hands-on crafting — often mixing it with digital tools. Lately, I’ve been exploring motion & 3D, to add new layers to my practice. Check my website to see more of my design world.
