Available to hire
I’m Flavia Sandu, a graphic designer based in Amsterdam with a passion for brand identity and campaign design. I collaborate with creative teams across museums, hospitality, education, and media to craft visuals that tell a story—from exhibition campaigns to print and digital assets.
Currently, I lead and contribute to multidisciplinary projects, from internal communications to external campaigns, and I enjoy turning complex concepts into cohesive brand systems. I’m always exploring new tools and techniques to push creative boundaries, including Figma, the Adobe Creative Suite, and generative AI experiments.
