Irina Anisimova Chaiet
@irinaanisimovachaiet
I build distinctive brand worlds through art direction, photography, and visual systems.
What I'm looking for
I've shaped brand campaigns, editorial platforms, and visual systems for OFFICIAL, Compass, and independent clients across real estate, technology, and culture.
At OFFICIAL, I art directed and produced the flagship brand video campaign, developed scalable design systems and guidelines, and led creative workflows across brand, marketing, and new-development initiatives.
At Compass, I led a multi-city agent video campaign spanning 40+ films, shaped the editorial direction of Compass Quarterly, and authored the Compass Property Image Style Guide for teams and photographers nationwide.
Now I freelance across art direction and design, including brand identity for Ana Vera Films and Drift / Align, a 12-artist group exhibition at Baxter St Camera Club of New York. I'm also developing Take Good Care, an ongoing photography project extending my MFA thesis research.
