Hello and welcome to CCGstudio!


My name is Catarina Cardoso G., and I’m a passionate graphic designer with a strong focus on brand identity, editorial layout and poster design. Currently studying at ERACOM, in Lausanne, Switzerland, I am constantly exploring new visual languages and pushing creative boundaries to craft designs that are both meaningful and visually engaging.

With a background in the arts and a deep-rooted passion for illustration—passed down from my late grandfather, a painter—I bring a unique perspective to my work. My artistic journey began with drawing and has evolved through years of working with various materials and techniques. Graphite and charcoal remain among my favorite mediums, allowing me to explore contrast and emotion in compelling ways.

Originally trained in scenography in Portugal, my education provided a strong foundation in visual storytelling, which continues to influence my graphic design practice today. Nature, music, and the beauty of the unconventional are major sources of inspiration for me.

I strive to create impactful visuals that not only communicate clearly but also resonate emotionally with audiences. Whether I'm developing a brand's identity or designing a print piece, my goal is to merge aesthetics with purpose.

Thank you for stopping by and welcome to my creative world!
