Gabriella Perez

I am Gabriella, a multidisciplinary design practitioner specializing in packaging and brand identity design.
While pursuing work as a tattoo artist and interest as an illustrator & photographer, I developed a larger appreciation for visual communication and creative thinking. This reflects in my multidisciplinary approach as a visual designer.
Throughout my years of study at University of the arts, I have had the opportunity to experiment, explore and expand in the design world. I have been able to work with an array of different practices which have helped grow my horizon as a designer and develop strong visual literacy with a keen eye for design.

I am very detail oriented, and I approach my work with dedication. During the design process I am highly guided by intuition and strongly inspired by the pillars of nature and it’s aesthetic qualities.
