Profile / Independent since 2018
Small practice.
Wide-angle thinking.

I’m Mara Vale, an independent creative director working where identity, campaigns and digital products meet.
I join small senior teams for the part of a project where the answer is not obvious yet: shaping the proposition, building the visual idea and making sure the system survives past the launch deck.
