Hello! I’m Dmitry, a freelance based in Milan, and I have a simple philosophy: if your brand isn’t making you money, it’s not really a brand—it’s just a pretty picture. Sounds blunt? Good, because that’s the truth. If your brand isn’t giving you a clear advantage on the bottom line, then let’s be honest, you’re just running a non-profit where success is measured by warm fuzzy feelings, not euro signs.
Whether you’re a startup looking to make a statement or a seasoned company that needs a little rework, I help you turn your brand into an asset that makes people say, “Take my money.” If you want your brand to actually work for you, not just look good, let's chat. Because in the end, if your brand isn’t driving revenue, it’s just a picture doing squats in the corner while everyone else gets the paycheck. Simple as that.
If you're wondering how this all works in action, take a look at a few of my works. Each one is a testament to my approach: blending creativity with strategy to boost brand value and drive results. From bold logos to full brand transformations, the work speaks for itself. Check out my portfolio, and see how I’ve helped businesses turn their brands into powerful, profit-driving assets. Let’s make your brand the next success story!

Where Elves and Gnomes Drink to Magic — And You’re Invited!
The idea for this beer brand came from an unexpected letter. One day, the owner of the company sent me a note: "I need a brand. Make it magical, fun, and something that will surprise people."
At first, I was stumped, but then it hit me: What if we combined the world of magic, mischievous elves, gnomes, and leprechauns, all enjoying a hearty pint together? A little playful, a bit cheeky, and packed with fantasy, the brand began to take shape. And what better way to create a beer that sparks wonder than with a story where mythical creatures toast to good times?
Intrigued by the mix of magic and mischief? Take a look at the brand portfolio I crafted — it's full of enchanted charm, unexpected characters, and, of course, great beer.
The Dream That Took Its Time.
The idea for Baby Dream didn’t come together instantly. The future owner of the brand flooded my inbox with emails about fabrics, fittings, and patterns, but none of it really helped me figure out what made this brand unique.
Then, in one of her long emails about the challenges of children’s clothing production, she casually mentioned something about childhood dreams and the hopes parents have for their children’s future. That was the lightbulb moment. Why not make the brand about nurturing those dreams?
I pitched her the idea, and she loved it right away. And that’s how a brand was born that embodies the dreams of parents and children.
The “Aha!” Moment
It all started with a coffee spill. David, the owner, was reviewing blueprints for a high-rise when his coffee cup tipped over. As he scrambled to clean up, he glanced at the company’s old logo and thought, “It doesn’t feel... right anymore.”
And that’s when the idea struck: Rebrand. It wasn’t just about a new logo—it was about showing the world that the company had evolved and was ready to build even bigger things.
After weeks of brainstorming and designing, we now have a fresh new slogan, logo, business cards, letterhead, and brochure showcasing both past achievements and future projects.
Take a look at this portfolio. It’s not just design—it’s the next chapter of our story. No coffee spills needed.
Looking for Something Special? It’s Closer Than You Think
Have you ever caught yourself thinking that something is missing? You see great work, professional projects, but still, there's that feeling: 'It's not quite right…'. As if just beyond the familiar lies the exact solution you need. If you feel your project requires something truly special, then you're already on the right path.
In a world filled with polished designs, it’s easy to settle for what’s available. But sometimes, what stands between ‘good’ and ‘great’ is a fresh perspective, a touch of creativity that transforms the familiar into something that speaks directly to your vision.
Great design isn’t found; it’s created.
