THE PERSON / THE PRACTICE
Mohamed Marouani
Independent Art Director & Brand Designer

I help brands discover their potential — and give it a clear, distinctive form.
Before I design, I listen. I want to understand the people behind a brand, what matters to them and what their audience needs to feel.
Research and conversation help me find the connection: an observation, a story or a point of view that can hold the whole project together. From there, the identity, imagery, packaging and digital experience grow as one world.
I work independently and alongside creative teams. I bring direction, stay involved in the details and give others space to take an idea further. The goal stays shared; the strongest idea can come from anyone.
02 / HOW I WORK
The people, the brief and the challenge. Ask questions before deciding what the answer should look like.
Explore context, culture and the market. Connect observations into one clear idea.
Build a visual language through type, image, colour, materials and composition. Every element needs a purpose.
Test the idea in real applications. Refine the details and deliver against a clear scope, milestones and deadline.
Photography caught my attention as a child. Later, while studying computing, a university poster assignment brought me back to graphic design. I changed direction and studied infographie.
Over time, I learned that design is more than placing images and text. Composition, colour and every detail need a reason to be there. Larger projects and agency briefings gradually widened my work into art direction.
Different clients, teams and cultures have shaped my judgement. I learned to interpret a brief, share responsibility, organise time and help a team reach the same goal. That learning continues with every project.
