About me:

I'm Francisco Costa

A 29 year old graphic designer based in Stamford, Connecticut, originally from Portugal. My journey has taken me from Europe to the United States, shaping both my creative perspective and the way I approach design.

After earning my Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design from the University of Bridgeport in 2021, I stepped directly into a full time role at the Stamford Jewish Community Center, where I have spent the past four years refining and expanding the organization’s visual presence. Working in house has allowed me to lead brand identity development, logo creation, illustration, social media content, print collateral, and large scale environmental graphics, all while maintaining consistency across departments.


My work focuses on dynamic brand systems, thoughtful typography, and strategic visual storytelling. I specialize in brand identity, logo development, type treatment, social media design, and both print and digital campaigns. Whether I am reworking a legacy logo, building a fitness center’s visual direction, or refreshing a membership department’s look, my approach balances clarity with energy.
