About

Hey, Hola, Olá. :)

Lorena Costa is a multidisciplinary designer focused on creating meaningful connections between creative & systemic visual expression. She believes in experimentation and culturally connected design, to find the sweet spot between commercial work and artistic research.

Her practice moves between studio collaborations and independent pieces — visual identity, art direction, editorial and motion — grounded in typography and a careful attention to cultural context.

Currently accepting selected commissions for 2026. Talks, residencies & collaborations, always.
