"Designing my way through life, keeping it playful and creative. Always trying to make things better. Making the world a more visually delightful place, one design at a time! In the best case, never not moving."
Hi, my name is Elia and I am a 22 year old graphic designer, motion designer and artist from Switzerland. In 2023, I finished my training at the Fachklasse Grafik in Lucerne, earning the EFZ qualification, including the Vocational Baccalaureate. At the moment I work in a design studio called White Stone Design in Switzerland. Before that, I worked as a animator at Animaskin in Norway. And a small but amazing studio called Chili in Iceland. Thanks a bunch for checking out my portfolio. If you don't mind, I will tell you a bit more about me. I’ve been tapping into my creative side since I was pretty young, but not in any one specific area of graphic design. Curiosity is my guide, and I’m always up for pushing boundaries and trying new things. If I’m not good at something yet, I just keep at it until I figure it out – no quitting here. Honestly, if it’s in the creative world, I’m probably interested in it. A solid example of this is my Everyday Project – I design something every day, no exceptions. When I’m off the clock and not working on an Everyday, I’m hanging out with my family or squeezing in some video games. I love getting lost in a game’s world, with its fabulous story, stunning graphics, and great soundtracks. It’s often those games that spark my creativity. If there’s time left over, I’ll dive into a good movie – I get a ton of inspiration from them, and I’ve definitely got a soft spot for moving images and animation.
