Claudio Linares

Spanish-German designer based in Zurich, with a background in graphic and interaction design. My work bridges visual communication, physical experience, and cultural reflection, often exploring how people engage with space and narrative. Rooted in strong conceptual thinking, I work across branding, digital and editorial design, UX/UI, animation, and visual storytelling.
