About Manon

Nice to meet you, my name is Manon 👋

Illustrator, graphic designer and art director, specializing in illustrated visual identities

I help brands create visual identities with sensitive and embodied illustrations that tell their story and reveal their uniqueness, in order to create an authentic and lasting connection with their audience.

My dual perspective as an art director and illustrator allows me to create graphic universes that are both clear, structured, and emotionally resonant.

For over 8 years, I have been supporting brands, agencies, and organizations in the visual translation of their projects. I have notably collaborated withLagardère Travel Retail**, **l’Opéra national de Paris**, and **UNICEF.

What I create for you:
✨ Branding & Art Direction
Logos, brand universes, graphic guidelines, visual systems.

✏️ Custom Illustrations
Editorial illustration, communication, illustrated content.

🎨 Communication Materials
Publishing, print, digital materials.

Why me?
→ I understand your project challenges because I was a communication project manager before becoming a graphic designer, which allows me to quickly translate your needs into relevant visual solutions
→ I facilitate decision-making by creating concrete mockups (mockups, variations, usage contexts) to help you visualize at each stage
→ I combine art direction and illustration to create illustrated, sensitive, and coherent visual identities, designed to last and adapt to your uses

Tools: Adobe Suite, Procreate, Office Pack.

Working with Manon was a real pleasure, and completely exceeded our expectations. We entrusted her with the design of our new project from A to Z: logo, graphic charter, font selection, adaptations, illustrations, layout of communication materials... The result is superb, perfectly matches what we wanted to convey, and is highly appreciated by our clients. Communication with Manon was always perfectly smooth, and she was attentive to our needs. We would gladly work with her again, and recommend her without hesitation.
