About

Marcelo Cardoso is a multidisciplinary designer and creative director specializing in brand identity, UX/UI design, and digital product design — helping companies build coherent, human-centered experiences across brand and digital touchpoints.

 

What He Does

Marcelo works with startups and established brands to design identities and products that feel intentional and well-crafted — balancing visual quality with strategic clarity. His work spans brand identity, web and app design, and design systems, always built around a deep understanding of the user and the business.

 

Services

  • Brand identity and visual design
  • UX/UI design for web and mobile
  • Digital product design
  • Design systems and component libraries

 

 

Marcelo approaches every engagement with a research-first mindset — taking time to understand the brand, its audience, and the competitive landscape before any design work begins. That foundation is what separates identity work that lasts from work that dates quickly.

 

Clients range from early-stage founders building their brand identity for the first time to established businesses ready to evolve a visual system that no longer reflects who they've become. In every case, the goal is the same: design that feels unmistakably right and connects authentically with the right audience.

 

 

The best brand design work earns its place in the world — not just on a screen or a business card, but in the way people feel when they encounter the brand. That's the standard that guides every project, and it's why clients return for additional work and refer others who have the same standards.

 

If you're looking for a partner who takes your business seriously and delivers work that produces results, this is a strong fit. The best engagements start with a real conversation about what you need — not a templated proposal.

 

Available for teams looking for a senior brand and UX/UI designer who operates at both the strategic and execution level.
