About me
I’m Yago Murakami, a Multidisciplinary Brand Designer based in Brazil. I’ve been a graphic designer for more than 10 years, with 5+ years of experience creating brands from scratch across diverse industries, including Food & Beverage, Fashion, Beauty and Technology, working with both new brands and well-established global brands.
My main focus is branding, where I can blend my love for typography, illustration, motion graphics, and creative direction to create cohesive and engaging brands.
Currently, I'm freelancing, working closely with brands to help build their visual foundations, collaborating with other designers and studios on distinctive, strategic brand identities while also pursuing personal projects that dive deeper into experimental motion graphics, typography and illustration.
I'm always open to new projects and ideas—whether you have a suggestion, a new opportunity, or just want to say "hello," feel free to reach out!
