Hi! I'm Kato Trofimova—creative director and illustrator based in Latvia.

I create visuals that cut through the noise and stick in memory. Bold color, clean geometry, and thoughtful metaphor—designed to connect emotionally and perform strategically.
  • I partner with brands big and small—from Adobe and UNICEF to ambitious startups and cultural institutions. My projects span illustration, brand identity, and creative strategy, always focused on clarity and impact.

    With a background in linguistics and art history, I bring deep attention to narrative structure and visual language. In 2024, I completed Brand Strategy & Design at Central Saint Martins under Marc Wood, sharpening my conceptual approach to storytelling.

    I believe great design is both smart and generous—it works hard for your goals while bringing warmth and optimism to the experience.

    What working together looks like:

    • Clear visual storytelling that resonates with your audience
    • Brand consistency with room for creative flexibility
    • A collaborative process that feels calm, not chaotic
    • Adaptable style tailored to your project needs
