Maria de Gibert – Art Director and Graphic Designer

Maresme Area

María de Gibert is originally from Barcelona and currently lives in the Maresme region, where she has found the perfect balance between living closer to nature, with both the sea and the mountains nearby, while still enjoying the vibrant cultural life of her hometown, to which she remains deeply connected.

She studied at Escola Massana and later completed a master’s degree in graphic design at Escola Elisava, graduating in 2008. After beginning her professional career in Barcelona, her professional aspirations led her to Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2012, where she lived and worked for six years, broadening her perspective and experience in the international field.

Throughout her career, she has collaborated with various design studios and communication agencies, which has allowed her to explore different approaches to design. With more than 18 years of experience in the industry, she began working full-time as an independent professional in 2022, embracing a more personal practice aligned with her values. She mainly works in editorial design and corporate identity, and her primary goal is to help clients through visual solutions that provide value, strengthen their identity, and contribute to their growth.

Her interests are especially focused on the creative field: art, culture, and design, as well as everything related to knowledge and self-care from a holistic perspective. She feels a particular affinity for projects committed to social causes, the environment, and animal welfare, aimed at generating a positive impact and contributing to the common good.

One of the things I value most about my profession is the constant learning. Every project is an opportunity to discover new worlds, understand different realities, and continue nurturing curiosity.

Maria loves sharing the Catalan language and culture with foreigners, and is always happy to do a language exchange — especially if she gets the chance to practise her French too.

 What people are saying about Maria
Maria de Gibert is more than a graphic designer - she is a passionate and talented professional who commits 110% to her projects and collaborations. She takes interest, gets involved, and proposes solutions when difficulties arise. Meticulous, precise and sensitive, Maria is a serious and gifted professional who will meet your expectations and shape your graphic projects. I have collaborated with Maria for over 10 years on a Swiss print editorial project. I can only highly recommend her.
Frederic Krafft-Gloria, Editor-in-Chief, AS Architecture Suisse
Maria té una capacitat poc comuna per donar forma a marques amb ànima. El seu talent no es limita al disseny, sinó a la seva habilitat per captar l’essència profunda d’un projecte i traduir-la en una identitat sòlida, amb recorregut, innovadora i diferencial.
Raquel Iglesias, Founder & Creative Director, Waste Art Lab & The Zero Waste Project
