Hi, I’m Andrés, Co-founder and Art Director at Brandtown Studio, a branding studio based in Santiago, Chile, working with brands around the world.
I’m passionate about building brands from the ground up, from brand strategy and positioning to visual identity and everything that comes after. I like thinking about the bigger picture, but I also enjoy getting into the details and making sure every piece looks and feels right.
Outside the studio, I’m pretty methodical too. I train regularly, love structure and discipline, and I bring that same mindset into the way I work. I’m also a big specialty coffee enthusiast ☕️
This is my little corner of the studio. If you’re looking for someone who can bring both strategic thinking and thoughtful execution to your brand, let’s talk.
NOIRÉ is a premium café brand built around a simple idea:
Great coffee should feel like a moment of pause, not another part of the
routine.
The project explores a complete visual identity, packaging
system, takeaway cups, coffee bags, tote bags, menu design, café applications and lifestyle campaign direction.
Instead of relying on the usual loud coffee aesthetics, I
built NOIRÉ around deep charcoal, warm ivory, soft graphite, refined
typography, subtle botanical illustrations and quiet editorial compositions.
The visual language is intentionally dark, tactile, and understated - giving every touchpoint the feeling of a slow morning, a quiet table, and coffee worth taking your time with.
From the cup in your hand to the café around you, every detail was designed to make the brand feel like a ritual.
I'm Alia, founder of Slick Prjct , my small brand strategy and design studio based in Brussels. I've been doing this for 10+ years, both in-house and freelancers side.
I've spent the last few years mostly on Upwork, so starting a profile here from zero feels a bit... strange? In a good way :)
So how is it here?
What do you wish someone had told you in your first month?
