About

More about me

Hi, I'm Nico Lauande, a freelance architect and designer based in Brazil, dedicated to designing experiences that connect people, products, and purpose.

My professional journey began in Architecture and Urbanism, where I developed strong skills in research, problem-solving, and human-centered design. Over time, I discovered that the same principles used to design physical spaces could be applied to digital experiences — understanding users, analyzing needs, and designing solutions that truly work.

Today, I focus on product and graphic design, combining analytical thinking, creativity, and empathy to deliver solutions that are both functional and emotionally engaging.

My experiences

I have had the pleasure to work with companies across a variety of industries. I'm always interested in new, exciting and challenging adventures.
