About Magali

Are you looking for a graphic designer who can translate your desires into attractive visuals that stand out from the others?

With my +7 years of experience as a graphic designer, I now specialize in lettering and iconography. I have worked both within communication agencies (Agence Saltimbanque, Alter&go) and for small creators (designer, photographer, lingerie designer...).

I make sure to have a real dialogue with my collaborators in order to understand the needs and objectives of the projects and to listen to them at each return to be as close as possible to their expectations. I don't hesitate to share my progress, even if it is not optimized, to make sure that I am going in the right direction with my clients.

What interests me in lettering and iconography is finding the most appropriate solution to express and convey intentions in the purest possible form.

I support you on these different solutions:

➤ Lettering and iconography

✹ Iconographic and intentional research
✹ Sketches of logos, icons and pictograms
✹ Vectorization and retouching
✹ Finalization and adaptation to different uses


➤ Visual identity

Experience

  • GIE FSE
    Creation of a visual identity for a conference
    SPORTS
    June 2024 - October 2024 (4 months)
    Paris, France
    For a conference on the future of sport, I created an identity specific to this event organized by two partners. The idea was to recall the codes of each, the GIE FSE and the Skema school in order to design something unique for the event. I also created all the variations for the different media: templates for PowerPoint presentations, invitations and programs etc.

    I am very happy with this collaboration which was done in complete confidence. I had the opportunity to work with them for small modifications on their visual identity, it was nice to collaborate again on a more ambitious project.

  • Julie Lou Arthuys
    Art Director
    LUXURY GOODS
    September 2023 - December 2023 (3 months)
    Paris, France
    The photographer Julie Lou Arthuys asked me to create her visual identity. For this mission, I took a lot of interest in asking myself how to create an identity that would work with her images. We defined together in which direction to go. The identity is very subtle with very summery color choices that recall the themes found in her photographs.


    It was very pleasant to work with someone in a visual field like mine. This mirror work with Julie's photographic universe pleased me a lot and I hope to have the opportunity to do it again.

  • Office du tourisme du Pays du Neubourg
    Graphic Designer
    TRAVEL AND TOURISM
    May 2022 - July 2023 (1 year and 2 months)
    Paris, France
    Creation of a 32-page magazine for the Pays de Neubourg Tourist Office. A magazine had already existed a few years before but it was a question of finding a new artistic direction that better corresponded to the Office today. It was therefore a fundamental work in the first instance with a choice of artistic direction concerning the layout and the models as well as the typographic choices and the colors. It was a question of finding a real dynamic between the different sections throughout the magazine but also for each page.

    It's always nice to be able to work on a project from start to finish. Layout is an area that I appreciate because for me it is like a puzzle, fitting all the pieces on the page and making it as beautiful as possible.
