(PROFILE) I’m Ayaka B. Ito, an independent Creative Director based in New York City and Tokyo, specializing in type-driven brand identities, editorial design, illustrations, and typefaces for clients in the fields of art, hospitality, lifestyle, fashion, and beauty.

With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in bringing new and established brands to life by elevating visuals with refined craftsmanship and thoughtful attention to detail. I work closely with clients to define the best approach in partnership. And depending on the project's needs, I also collaborate with my network of talented creatives to offer a holistic experience.
