Claudia Aran

Design Director in Barcelona

About

brand and design director from Barcelona, with a big passion for visual arts. I consider myself an accurate designer with a strong vision and a distinctive eye for detail and style. I enjoy working with people but mostly learning from them. I believe one can be inspired even by the most unexpected thing, situation, or feeling, and that these lead to truly creative and unique work.

Projects

Writing

2023

A great rebranding is less about remaking your identity and more about becoming closer to who you already are.

2023

Color has more effect on our subconscious than we could ever imagine. But it is one of the main areas where some designers miss the opportunity to develop a good concept and define a set of rules for their use. In this article, I share the story behind Typeform's colors and every decision we took to develop its palette.

2022

Designing a beautiful sales page that converts is a delicate balance between art and science. In this excerpt, I share my section from a recent article on creating effective checkout pages with Flodesk.
