data-end=\"723\">With eight years of experience in graphic design specializing in branding, along with numerous art direction projects, I am now seeking a creative playground that matches my ambition. Over the years, I\u2019ve had the privilege of collaborating with a wide range of organizations\u2014from committed nonprofits to large-scale companies. This diversity has allowed me to refine my expertise and develop a collaborative approach that is both strategic and creative. I now wish to bring this rich and versatile experience to ambitious projects where innovation and visual boldness come together.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"725\" data-end=\"1280\">A millennial through and through, I was learning to code before I could even read\u2014or so the family legend goes. I grew up at the crossroads of technologies: between books and comic books, between theatre and film, between Game Boy and social media, between the internet that disconnected when someone picked up the phone and the rise of artificial intelligence. This diversity has fueled my curiosity for more than thirty years and remains a valuable source of creative ideas that I nurture through reading, digital exploration, and immersive experiences.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h3><strong>\u2192<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/RAPHAEL_DESMAISON_CV_ENG.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">View Resume<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u2192<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/projects_grille\/\">80+ Successful Projects<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"RAPHA\u00cbL DESMAISON 8 YEARS IN THE INDUSTRY GRAPHIC DESIGNER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR BASED IN MONTR\u00c9AL, I help cultural, social, and mission-driven organizations transform their values into clear, coherent, and inspiring visual worlds.My work is rooted in simplicity, colour, and typography, serving an accessible, thoughtful, and contemporary artistic direction.From logos to full campaigns, I create living <a href=\"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/en\/home\/\" class=\"more-link\">...<\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1654","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1654","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1654"}],"version-history":[{"count":82,"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1654\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4625,"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1654\/revisions\/4625"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/raph.xyz\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
