Where graphic design and languages come together to tell your story with impact
Over the years, living and learning in different language environments has shaped how this studio thinks and transforms its own projects. Design projects born from a mix of languages and struggles.
João Rodrigues is the creative mind behind Non-Native Studio. Specialized in graphic design, João studied book design and typography in Kiel (de), Lisbon (pt), and Bilbao (es). Living across Europe has made him, in a way, non-native in English, French, and Dutch, while his mother tongue is Portuguese.
Today, living in Belgium continues to inspire him to explore language learning through design, creating visual narratives. He brings graphic solutions that tell your own mission and vision in multiple languages.
Approach
Why my focus on language
I’ve collaborated with multilingual teams, often working across four languages (en, nl, fr, pt). This experience has shaped the way I think and work.
Through graphic and motion design and illustrations, I aim to break down barriers so I can make long-term strong connections through languages.
What I bring to the project
Ideal partner for visually engaging, conceptually projects on multilingual communication, youth empowerment, cultural identity, and community storytelling. Drawing from my experience creating visual identities, motion graphics for EU/NGO’s campaigns, and podcast production about languages and personal journeys.
How can I contribute
With a background in European organisations, creative networks, and youth movements, I’ve developed strong (niche) skills in education and costume design solutions.
I am specialize in visual identity, motion design, and video production for European organizations and creative networks. I bring storytelling that connects with diverse audiences/communities and delivers complete project solutions.
