About Larissa

Hi! I am Larissa Carvalho, a Graphic Designer and Illustrator.

I'm a passionate graphic designer with a love for all things creative based in Toronto,ON. Design, to me, is more than just a profession – it's a way of life. With a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for aesthetics, I thrive on transforming ideas into visually captivating realities.Creativity is a perpetual source of inspiration for me, challenging me to think, create, and design in diverse and enjoyable ways that are both impactful and innovative.

Why Design?

Ever since I laid my hands on my first crayon, I knew I was destined for a life filled with colors, shapes, and endless creativity. I believe that design is the bridge that connects imagination to the tangible world. It's the art of storytelling without uttering a word – and I believe that's something truly magical.

What Sets Me Apart?

Through years of improving my skills, I've developed a keen understanding of visual communication. Typography, color theory, and layout design are more than just terms to me – they're tools that help me craft experiences. Each project becomes an opportunity to convey the narratives, allowing me to embrace creativity and to build meaningful connections. Whether it's a user-friendly interface, an expressive illustration or a stunning print piece, I pour my heart and soul into every project.

My Journey So Far

My design journey has been a dynamic adventure, spanning freelance work and the establishment of a personal shop where I sold a variety of print products featuring my illustrations. From collaborating with diverse clients to breathing life into brand identities, each project is an opportunity for creative exploration. With skills honed in production coordination, graphic design, and freelance management, I've excelled in delivering exceptional customer service and contributed to shaping designs with a focus on client needs, user experience, effective communication, budget constraints, and sustainability. Each experience has enriched my creative journey, presenting new challenges and opportunities for growth.

Beyond Design

When I'm not immersed in design projects, you'll likely find me seeking inspiration from fellow artists, exploring nature's beauty, painting watercolors or exploring new coffee shops. I believe that the best designs are often born from continuously learning and finding inspiration in life experiences.
