Virgínia do Carmo

I am a communication and audiovisual designer, with an analytical and methodical approach, focused on branding, graphic design, motion and digital content. I work based on organisation, consistency and attention to detail, creating clear and adaptable visual systems across different formats. I believe that a strong and coherent identity is essential to reinforce the connection between brands and their audiences, both in digital and physical media.

Throughout my career, I have worked in multidisciplinary contexts and with different teams, including an Erasmus+ experience at StudioTide in Amsterdam, which allowed me to develop a flexible, intercultural and results-oriented way of working. I am now looking to join a professional environment where I can continue to grow, learn from the team and contribute with effective, consistent and impactful visual solutions.
