Plate 02 · Studio portrait

I'm Daria — creative director and branding consultant for houses that move slowly and stay long.

For over a decade I've worked at the seam between fashion, hospitality and lifestyle — places where a brand isn't a logo but a temperature, a tone of voice, a particular weight of paper.

My practice is small on purpose. I take on a handful of houses each year and stay with them — from the strategy on the napkin to the window display on opening night.

Based between Lisbon and Paris. Working globally with founders, ateliers and operators.
