About
Nora Vale — Offprint No. 07
Hello, I'm
Nora.

I design identities and digital products for founders, studios and small teams who care about the details.
Before going independent in 2019, I spent six years in studios in Lisbon and Copenhagen, working on everything from ferry signage to banking apps. Today I take on four to six projects a year, so each one gets my full attention from the first workshop to the final file.
When I'm not designing, I'm printing posters on an old risograph or looking for the best pastel de nata in town.

How I work
(03)
01
Fewer, better things
One strong idea carried all the way through beats ten clever ones.
02
Design you can keep
Files, rules and systems your team can use without me.
03
Straight talk
Clear scope, honest timing, no surprise invoices.

How we can work together
One designer, from the
first sketch to the
final file.
No hand-offs between agencies. You talk to the person who does the work, and you get files your team can actually use.
