About Magali

CURSUS:

Art director and graphic designer since 2013, I hold a Master's degree in Image Communication Strategy and a BTS in visual communication.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE:

I work in various areas of graphic design, as well as upstream on visual strategy when the project requires it (message, target audience, tone...) to highlight its intrinsic values and differentiating factors – because every project is unique!

Some examples (non-exhaustive) of what I can create: visual identity, editorial design (books, magazines...), signage, packaging, communication materials (cards, flyers, brochures...), web design...

METHODOLOGY:

Through my experience, I have developed a methodology that allows me to work step-by-step with project owners, efficiently and within realistic deadlines. Here are the stages:

• Listening and dialogue before the project are required to understand the stakes and define the issues related to each project
• then comes the conceptualization phase: I propose several creative directions / concepts to develop (a creative direction being the common thread from which the entire project will stem)
• then comes the formalization and development phase of the chosen creative direction
• finally, I finalize the project elements

This methodology adapts to all types of projects, from visual identity creation to editorial design.

    May 2013 - Today (13 years and 1 month)
    Paris, France
    Independent art director since 2013, I hold a Master's degree in Image Communication Strategy and a BTS in visual communication / graphic design. Through my various experiences (particularly as an associate and art director at the Følsom studio, then co-founder of the Pimpant studio!), I have refined my graphic techniques and communication tools by working on projects with very diverse subjects and scales (retail, scenography, visual identities, editorial design...).

    Today, I continue to put my experience at the service of brands and publishers, combining creativity, rigor, and visual strategy.

    Immersing myself in your universe, understanding its mechanisms, and integrating your values are essential to ensure the coherence, authenticity, and inventiveness that your project deserves. Furthermore, I do not hesitate to involve specialists from my network when projects require it, in order to build teams adapted to your needs and ambitions.

    Passionate about design, I am convinced that authentic and well-thought-out communication is your best business card. I enjoy seeing the projects entrusted to me evolve, starting from my blank page and research to become entities in their own right that you are proud to represent. I am committed to supporting you in the creation and development of your brand with a strategy developed step-by-step with you.
