Dutch born, Japanese raised art director based in Cape Town focusing on branding & design in expressive forms.

Hello there
I’m Camila Ordorica

I’m an Art Director with over a decade of experience designing visual narratives that drive recognition, engagement, and lasting impact across editorial, branding, digital, and immersive platforms. I studied Graphic Design at Universidad Iberoamericana, where I specialized in strategic design, and I hold a certificate in Foundations in Design Thinking from IDEO and Tecnológico de Monterrey.

My approach to design is grounded in inquiry, clarity, and emotional connection, with a focus on making ideas visible, memorable, and aligned with a brand’s purpose. My work helps projects stand out, resonate with their audiences, and grow in visibility and relevance.

I lead interdisciplinary teams of designers, developers, illustrators, data visualizers etc.. to craft cohesive visual strategies that adapt seamlessly across print, web, multimedia and environments, delivering not just aesthetic consistency but measurable impact.

My work has received recognition for its creativity and effectiveness, earning gold and bronze medals, merit awards, and multiple medal nominations from the Society of Publication Designers (SPD) and the CASE Awards. In 2024, I served as a judge and illustration mentor at SPD, supporting emerging talent and championing the role of visual storytelling.

At the core of my practice is a commitment to purposeful, collaborative design that builds meaning, drives results, and leaves a lasting visual impression.
