Margarida Girão

I’ve always been drawn to arts and communication, guided by humanitarian and justice-driven values. My expertise in collage – something I’ve been passionate about since the age of 10 – has been applied across editorial and commercial illustration, workshops, events, and small-scale community identity projects.

In addition to my collage work, I lead A NEW DAY, a creative studio developed in collaboration with friends and agencies, where we integrate design, communication, and bold creative direction to develop meaningful and impactful projects.
