Portfolio


Hi, I'm Paulina


I am a multidisciplinary designer and creative professional with several years of experience delivering strategic, high-quality design solutions across graphic and logo design, print and digital media, website design and development, and marketing. As the founder of my own creative business, I collaborate with clients to transform ideas into visually compelling and results-driven brand experiences.

My approach combines creativity with usability and business awareness, ensuring that each project is both visually strong and purpose-driven.

This portfolio features selected end-to-end projects developed for brand promotion, commercial applications, and UX coursework. Additional work can be explored across categories including graphic design, digital art, illustration, painting, apparel design, and web design. Work-in-progress videos are also available to provide insight into my creative process and problem-solving approach.

My Approach


Collaborative

While I’m confident working independently and taking full ownership of projects, I also value strong collaboration when working within a team. I’m comfortable working on projects from concept to completion on my own, managing priorities and decisions with accountability. At the same time, I appreciate shared ideas, constructive feedback, and cross-functional teamwork that strengthens the final outcome. Whether working solo or alongside others, my focus remains the same: delivering thoughtful, high-quality design aligned with clear goals.

Iterative

I believe great design evolves. My process is iterative and insight-driven: I explore, test, refine, and improve continuously. I welcome feedback and use it as a tool to strengthen each solution. By balancing creativity with strategy, I ensure the final outcome is not only visually engaging, but also thoughtful, user-centered, and aligned with business goals.

About
LaFleouris a flower shop with possibility to order flowers and decorations ahead via online e-shop. It also allows customers placing custom orders, for big amounts of items, but also for unusual items, that are not available daily.


Main Problem and Goal
The main problem was a language translation feature that many of the people I interacted with wanted to have in their grocery app. Also, access to high quality local products was one of the main wishes that I met while preparing the app. The goal was to create a well working flower shop with possibility to order custom flowers and floral decorations ahead of time, so they can be picked up at a desired time.


Main User Pain Points
Time: Users don’t have time to waste on visiting many different flower places to get what they need, so they would like to have an option to purchase and order all they need in one place, with a possibility to customize certain items.

Stock Variety: Users find existing apps and websites they know and tried to use not stocked enough, they wish to have more varieties of products available to choose from.

Accessibility: Some of the apps and websites are difficult to navigate or don’t have all options clearly described. They also rarely have solutions for people with special needs.


User Research
I conducted interview research with a couple of people in different ages and in different life situations. After that I created empathy maps to help me understand their needs and pain points that keep repeating and that keep them from getting the solution they need. My primary group of people are young adults, starting their lives in a chosen career, living by themselves, with a partner or their families, having a need of regular flower purchases for business needs or personal needs.

The main problem that the users have is not being able to find one reliable website where they can customize their order and place it ahead, also request custom flower types and decorations, ready to be picked up or delivered at certain, chosen time and date.
