MARIIA ORR
@mariiaorr
Munich-based graphic designer blending motion, UI/UX, and mixed-media storytelling.
What I'm looking for
I am a Munich-based graphic designer and collage artist with a strong foundation in visual communication, motion design, and UI/UX. I blend digital and analog techniques and have a deep interest in typography, mixed media, and storytelling through design.
I have created motion design marketing videos, keynote and slide decks, social media visuals, and brand identity assets while collaborating with cross-functional teams at companies and freelance clients. I founded and ran a healthy treats brand, overseeing brand identity, packaging, operations, and community engagement.
My experience includes social media strategy and content production, video shooting and post-production, Shopify storefront optimization, and performance-focused campaign creative. I actively explore AI tools to enhance and accelerate the design process and work across tools like Figma, Adobe Suite, Blender, and generative AI systems.
I am curious, proactive, and detail-oriented, with proven strengths in precise independent work, creative thinking, and strong communication. I seek opportunities to contribute meaningful, thoughtful design that combines craft, strategy, and emerging creative technologies.
