I'm Margarida, a Brand Designer, Art Director and Strategist based in Portugal. My work comes from a real understanding of brand strategy and craft, and my intention is always the same: to build identity systems that don't just look right, but hold up under scrutiny, rooted in clarity, purpose and long-term thinking.

I also founded Foam Studio in 2017, partnering with founders and teams across hospitality, lifestyle, food and culture to bring their brands to life.
