Cina
Associates
We are a small, independent studio working at the intersection of branding, typography, visual storytelling, and systems building. Our strength lies not in scale, but in insight—shaped by decades of collective experience and a deep understanding of the history of graphic design.
With years of practice, we’ve developed a kind of visual fluency—able to read between the lines, connect abstract ideas, and land on solutions that feel both surprising and inevitable.
What we offer isn’t just visual polish—it’s clarity, emotional weight, and conceptual depth. Our process is both intuitive and rigorous: guided by research, sparked by curiosity, and grounded in our ability to translate abstract ideas into tangible outcomes.
As visual thinkers, we often arrive at meaning through form—sketching, testing, questioning, and refining. We translate images into ideas, and ideas into systems. We don’t follow trends; we reflect the times we live in and design with the aim of lasting resonance.
Our collaborators range from global brands to small start-ups, but what unites them is a shared respect for the power of design. We help them communicate what words alone cannot—through custom type, art direction, and brand identities that are as distinct as they are purposeful.
We believe that ideas must contain life. And design, at its best, should move people.
Let’s begin something meaningful together.
