My name is Ilka Paulini, and I'm a Brazilian graphic designer and visual artist currently based in Portugal. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Architecture and Urban Planning from Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil, where I always showed a great interest in communication and visual arts. This led me to take a sandwich year to study Design at Politecnico di Milano's Scuola del Design in Milan, Italy, where I had the opportunity to explore my passions and learn from some of the best in the field.

​

After working as an architect for some time, I realized that my true calling lay in graphic design and photography, so I chose to take a leap of faith and leave my short career in architecture to pursue my creative interests.

 

Now, as a freelancer, I work remotely with clients from all over the world, taking on all kinds of creative projects. I'm constantly fascinated by the ever-evolving possibilities of visual communication and strive to bring a fresh and unique perspective to every project I work on.
