About me
Hey!
It’s Marina. I’m a multidisciplinary designer with 7 years of experience across different industries.
I started out as a freelancer, working with clients and small businesses across the UK, EU, and USA, which really helped me push creative boundaries and discover what I enjoy most about design. Over the past 4 years, I’ve been working in corporate design and currently enjoy my role as a Senior Global Creative Designer at Morgan Stanley, creating impactful design solutions while working within strict brand standards.
At the same time, I lead Dishly, a personal project where I get to design everything from user research and UX flows to UI and visual branding, working closely with a developer. It’s a space that allows me to stay up to date with new disciplines, tools, and techniques, while continuously refining my design skills. I’m passionate about crafting intuitive, engaging experiences and love finding new ways to make design meaningful and enjoyable.

Before
I selected Myriad Pro for this project due to its versatility, clarity, and professional appeal. As a neutral, humanist sans-serif, it offers excellent legibility across both digital and print mediums, making it a dependable choice for consistent design delivery. Its simplicity ensures the content remains the focal point while delivering a polished and timeless aesthetic. While widely used, its popularity highlights its effectiveness in communicating clear, accessible messaging without detracting from the design.
For this project, I was responsible for building the brand from the ground up, including logo design, branding, product labelling, and illustration—all tailored to the client’s brief. My goal was to craft a cohesive visual identity that embodies elegance, naturalness, and quality, resonating with the brand’s values and its target audience.

After
My role was to revitalise the company’s brand identity for a new product launch, blending a fresh, modern look with the core essence of the brand. I introduced a pastel blue for packaging, tailored specifically for night-time products like Retinol, and updated the typography to Shamery Regular and Simplifica Regular. Shamery’s handwritten charm adds sophistication and a personal touch, fostering an emotional connection with customers, while Simplifica’s clean, minimalist design ensures clarity and professionalism
I also refreshed the illustrations and reimagined a minimalist version of the logo, focusing on highlighting Enola Nature’s initials. Additionally, I designed product packaging, polythene sachets, and labels, and led the UI/UX design of the official website to deliver a cohesive, consistent, and visually engaging brand experience overall.
Enola Nature Homepage
The UI/UX design for the Enola Nature Cosmetics website was all about balancing simplicity with functionality. I'm a big advocate of clean, minimalist design that is modern and easy to navigate, making it easy for users to search for products and make purchases.
The site is fully responsive, ensuring it works seamlessly across all devices, and I incorporated SEO best practices to improve its visibility on Google. The end result reflects the brand's identity and offers a user-friendly experience that encourages engagement and increases sales.
