Hi, I’m Kauã Michelin

a graphic designer and art director with nearly 15 years of experience. Over the years, I’ve evolved my work by crafting stories and building brands that connect and make an impact.

I’ve worked on projects for major brands, developing campaigns that balance concept, strategy, and visual identity. I believe great ideas need strong execution, and my role is to focus on every detail to turn an insight into something truly memorable.
