Hi, I am Ionut.

An NYC-based Romanian designer, illustrator, and art director, passionate about lettering and smart, beautifully crafted design. I am interested in combining design with illustration, particularly for lifestyle and fashion, where I can infuse elegance with a dash of quirk.

My work is fuelled by kombucha, music, and an unhealthy amount of mags, zines, and other printed matter. In my 10+ years of working & freelancing, I enjoyed creating visual experiences for both established and startup companies.

Some of my areas of expertise are branding, web, editorial, packaging, lettering, and illustration.

Please reach out for a detailed PDF portfolio, CV, and inquiries at [email protected].
