About Estelle

Freelance Layout Artist & Graphic Designer – Give your publications a breath of fresh air

With over 25 years of experience in print, I lay out, structure, compose, and clarify.

My job: making your content speak, with elegance, precision, and efficiency.

As a specialist in press and publishing, I design layouts on InDesign, brochures, posters, programs, booklets, while respecting your editorial and graphic constraints. I have been working with France Catholique and the Sanctuary of Ars for several years on regular projects, balancing editorial rigor with a sense of message.

My strengths:
  • High autonomy in project management
  • Perfect mastery of print constraints (proofs, pre-press, deadlines)
  • A sober, clear, and impactful graphic approach
  • A committed positioning: cultural, spiritual, associative, or institutional

Whether you are looking for a layout artist for a magazine, a graphic designer for an event program, or a sharp eye to structure your materials... I am ready to give shape to your ideas.
