Carlos de Paula

Graphic Designer

Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I'm not your average graphic designer, because designers are not all the same – I've been in the design scene for over 15 years, specializing in all things branding, packaging, and visual strategies. My journey kicked off back in Curitiba, Brazil, where I got my start surrounded by some seriously cool folks in great agencies and design studios. Along the way, I co-founded a design studio that was the real deal for a solid six years and it stills on the scene. But you know what they say about change – it's the spice of life. So, I hopped continents and found myself soaking up the rays in sunny Sydney, Australia. There, I got into the groove of exhibition design at Infocus Design taking my creativity to a whole new size and level. But… as life loves to throw curveballs, I rolled with the punches and ended up in the fantastic city of Toronto, Canada. These days, I'm putting my skills to work (and still learning a lot) at Ampersand Studio.

respect everyone & hard work everyday.
