DALILA
MAGANINHO

Portuguese-German Interdisciplinary Designer with 15+ years of experience in transforming knowledge into tangible experiences.

I blend creative design techniques with analytical thinking. Whether it's crafting cohesive visual identities, designing user-friendly digital platforms, or curating thought-provoking exhibitions, my focus is always on delivering designs that resonate emotionally and intellectually.

I’ve collaborated with cultural, educational, and creative organizations to develop projects that connect with diverse audiences. By combining design methodology, user experience (UX/UI), and storytelling, I aim to bridge the gap between knowledge and its audience, making information tangible and accessible.

I’m open to new collaborations and opportunities to work with clients who value meaningful design.
