Hi, I’m Maria Clara Prigioni. I’m a graphic designer with a multidisciplinary background and a strong visual sensibility. My journey into design began in architecture, followed by roles as a sales assistant and visual merchandiser, and collaboration with a handcrafted interior design studio. These experiences taught me to approach design methodically, organize space effectively, listen to people’s needs, and turn ideas into tangible solutions. At 35, I formalized my skills with structured graphic design study, and today I work across branding and logo design, motion graphics for social media, presentations, editorial design, and custom illustrations. I have a solid foundation in typography and enjoy creating visual systems that work seamlessly across print and digital platforms. My approach is hands-on, intuitive, and always evolving, balancing logic and creativity, clarity and play. I’m currently collaborating as a freelance graphic designer with projects based in Milan and Barcelona, continuing to grow a practice that favors hands-on experimentation and practical problem solving. I believe in learning by doing, staying in motion, and finding the spaces where visual language supports people’s goals.
