About
Born in Guadalajara, Mexico in 2002.
Now based in Florence, Italy, where her design approach has been shaped through a continuous dialogue between cultures, references, and ways of seeing.
Her work moves across brand design, identity systems, and image-making, always grounded in a strong sensitivity to visual meaning and curated aesthetics.
Approach
As an art director and designer, Isabella approaches each project through observation, curation, and refinement. She is drawn to visuals that feel considered rather than overdesigned, trusting composition, typography, and imagery to communicate with clarity and nuance.
Her process begins with understanding context, references, and intention before translating these into structured yet flexible visual systems.

Studio Nicholson
Creative Direction
New York, NY
10/2022
Overview
Creative direction for a campaign exploring the studio's relationship to work, durability, and everyday utility. The project focused on developing a clear visual framework across photography and set design, balancing the brand’s industrial heritage with a contemporary, editorial sensibility. Attention was given to location, casting, and material detail, ensuring the imagery felt grounded and functional rather than styled. The result was a cohesive body of work that reinforced the studio's identity while allowing space for nuance and modern interpretation. Visual decisions were guided by longevity rather than trend. Shot in New York over 3 days with a crew of brilliantly talented friends.
Collaborators
Set Design — Susan Friar Photographer — Randy Lawrence Art Direction — Alexander Smith First AD — Rose Whitman Make-Up — Flo Ware

Art Direction & Photography
Stockholm, SW
02/2022
Overview
A campaign focused on clarity, proportion, and material detail. The project centred on developing a restrained visual language that reflected Glossier's emphasis on precision and craft, using controlled compositions, shaped light, and minimal set design. Casting and styling were kept understated to allow form, surface, and fit to take precedence. The resulting imagery balanced editorial tone with product focus, presenting products as both functional objects and considered design pieces.

Service Works
Creative Direction
San Sebastian, SP
05/2021
Overview
Sam led the creative direction for a spring/summer campaign focused on Service Works’ utilitarian roots and contemporary relevance. The brief centred on establishing a clear visual framework across photography and set design, drawing from references of functional labour, repetition, and everyday environments that are utilised and cherished. Emphasis was placed on casting, location, and material detail, allowing the garments to be read through use rather than styling. The resulting work presented the collection in a grounded, functional context, reinforcing the brand’s workwear ethos while maintaining a clean sensibility. The imagery was developed to function across digital and print contexts, maintaining cohesion at multiple scales. This ensured the work could be deployed flexibly without losing its grounded, utilitarian tone.
