Brand Identity, Packaging & Print Design | Senior Art Director

Rome, Italy

$200K+ total earnings

I design brand identities, packaging, editorial layouts, and print-ready visual systems for brands that need clear, refined, and consistent design. My work is especially useful when a business already has a product, idea, or existing visual direction, but needs stronger hierarchy, better typography, cleaner layouts, and files that are ready for real-world use across print, packaging, digital, and commercial materials. I can help with: Premium Packaging & Label Design Wine and spirits labels, beverage packaging, olive oil, food products, cosmetics, skincare, and multi-SKU packaging systems with careful attention to hierarchy, materials, finishes, and production requirements. Brand Identity & Visual Systems Logo systems, typography, color palettes, brand guidelines, packaging extensions, editorial layouts, menus, and branded applications for food, beverage, hospitality, lifestyle, and premium consumer brands. Editorial & Print Communication Brochures, catalogues, brand presentations, editorial layouts, print materials, and visual communication tools where clarity, structure, and typography are central to the final result. Production-Ready Design Files Adobe Illustrator source files, print-ready PDFs, dielines, CMYK/Pantone setup, foil/embossing layers, prepress checks, and organized files that can be sent to suppliers without unnecessary back-and-forth. I have 15+ years of experience in visual communication and art direction, with work across premium consumer brands, cultural institutions, hospitality, food & beverage, and international clients including Rolex, Mercedes-Benz, Unicef, Continental, Roberto Coin, CRUI, and Regione Emilia-Romagna. On Upwork, I am a Top Rated Plus freelancer with $200K+ earned, 380+ completed projects, and a long track record of helping clients refine, build, and deliver professional visual systems. I am a good fit if you need a senior designer who can take an existing idea, brand, or product and turn it into a clear, coherent, production-ready visual system.

Designer & Author | Books, Editorial & Visual Storytelling

Udine, Italy

I help authors and creatives turn ideas and manuscripts into books people want to hold, read, and keep. What makes me different is simple: I know both sides of the book. I’m an author myself, and I’m also the designer authors trust to translate their words into a visual world. I understand what it feels like to care deeply about every word on a page, while also knowing exactly how typography, pacing, hierarchy, imagery, and space can transform the way those words are experienced. I’ve written, illustrated, designed, and independently published my own book, Flourishing, founded and edited my own independent literary and arts publication, Selvaticaz, and worked with countless authors to turn their ideas into thoughtful, beautifully crafted publications. And I’m an artist, too, so when a project calls for something beyond traditional editorial design, I can bring illustration, image-making, collage, art direction, and a more instinctive visual approach into the mix. Originally from Italy with Canadian roots, I’ve spent years travelling, living, and creating internationally and am currently based in Mexico. That constant exposure to different cultures, aesthetics, and ways of telling stories naturally feeds into my creative work. If you’re looking for someone who can take an idea and truly make a book out of it, I’d love to work with you.
