Hi! I’m Gabriela
I work as a design consultant and creative partner for small teams who care about what they do and how they communicate it.
My background combines graphic design, communication, fine arts, and marketing. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with growing teams — especially in digital products and impact-driven organizations — helping them clarify ideas, make better decisions, and translate complexity into clear, thoughtful visuals. I usually collaborate as part of the team rather than as an external provider. That means asking questions, understanding the audience, and paying attention to context before jumping into execution.
Design, for me, is not just about how things look, but about how they make sense and how they connect with people. I care deeply about communication, consistency, and creating work that feels honest, human, and purposeful.
Alongside design and art direction client work, I also work as illustration artist exploring themes such as identity, the body, social expectations, and collective experience. These projects feed back into my design practice, keeping my work curious, critical, and grounded.
I currently work independently, collaborating remotely with teams across different countries. If you have any proposal or suggestions, do not hesitate to contact me at gabrielabasin@gmail.com
