Faculty of Architecture, Design and Urbanism (FADU), University of Buenos Aires

Hi, I’m Katia, a graphic designer and textile pattern enthusiast based in Argentina. My work is focused on creating delicate, feminine and visually rich compositions, where color, texture and rhythm play a central role. I’m especially drawn to pattern design as a way to transform surfaces into expressive, immersive experiences. I often take inspiration from everyday elements and reinterpret them through a more refined and contemporary lens, exploring how repetition and detail can evoke emotion and identity. With a background in graphic design, I bring a strong sense of composition and visual storytelling into textile design, aiming to create pieces that feel both intentional and distinctive. Through my work, I’m continuously exploring new ways to merge digital design with textile expression, developing patterns that are not only aesthetic, but also meaningful and adaptable.
