About Estelle

What do I enjoy about my work? Helping my clients improve the quality of their communication, establish and affirm their visual identity.
A creative and adaptive process that is fueled by listening to the specific needs of each of my clients, an exchange of perspectives, and collaborative thinking.

I like it when clients entrust me with complex execution tasks: formatting, organizing, adapting according to their brand guidelines, on various media or with special finishes... the technical aspect of my profession motivates me as much as the creative aspect!

Illustration is another facet of my work. I work with watercolors (and other mixed media when the mood strikes) and exhibit at local art and craft markets. "Xavière l'Aventurière" is a character that Marie Bernard allowed me to bring to life.

In my background, I have a Professional Title in Graphic Design and Layout and a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts.
I use the Adobe Suite: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign... as well as more traditional tools like watercolors and paper ;-)

Layout work, exclusively "print," for all media and in the broadest sense of the term, respecting deadlines and technical constraints.

See you soon!

    September 2004 - August 2013 (9 years)
    Goxwiller, France
    This first position of responsibility immersed me in the reality of my profession!
    I was responsible for the production and follow-up of "paper" supplies: conception, writing, illustration, layout, and updating of educational materials, catalogs, and administrative supplies. I was in charge of creating and monitoring specific customizations for clients, as well as producing products on various media (books, leaflets, stickers...).
    A memorable and formative experience with a wonderful team spirit among colleagues from all departments.

    August 2018 - October 2018 (2 months)
    Lièpvre, France
    I produced all the files for the point-of-sale displays for the Euroforum 2018 by Schmidt (Schmidt Group): totems, posters, stickers, etc., according to the directives received from the project manager and the event's theme, in collaboration with the various stakeholders.
    This temporary mission was a great technical (how to create a mountain in an exhibition hall?) and human experience.
