Marta Cerdà Alimbau

Marta Cerdà is a Barcelona based independent Letterer, Illustrator and Graphic Designer. Her main body of work is focussed on the boundaries between typography and illustration. While Marta's style is strongly eclectic, she believes that the separation of these two disciplines into specialized activities is a limitation for her work.

She graduated in Graphic Design in the University of Elisava, Barcelona. At the end of 2008, after working in agencies and studios between Barcelona, Düsseldorf and Munich, she won the ADC Young Guns and decided to found her own studio. Since then, she has worked globally, based in different cities like New York, Los Angeles, Amsterdam and Barcelona, working on projects which call for Art Direction, Design, Illustration and Custom Typography for Arts, Culture and Advertising Clients.

Marta has been awarded by major Design competitions like The Type Directors Club, The Society of Publication Designers and the Art Directors Club Young Guns, among others. She also lectures about Design at creative conferences and Universities internationally.
