I’M HUGO HERRERA, a visual creative with experience in illustration, design, and graphic communication.

I’ve worked with agencies, publishers, and companies on projects that go beyond just images, developing versatile visual solutions that convey ideas with clarity and purpose.

Thanks to my experience across different media, from newspapers, with their diverse sections and approaches, to advertising and communication agencies, as well as representation agencies, I have developed

great versatility. This adaptability is key when crafting effective visual strategies for each project.

It’s not just about creating something aesthetically pleasing but about designing images that communicate, connect, and make an impact across different formats and styles.

My approach combines strategy, creativity, and a strong command of visual language, adapting to the specific needs of each project.

I WORK WITH IMAGES, IDEAS, AND CONCEPTS to bring them to life. More than just illustrating or designing, I focus on finding the best way to visually communicate each project. Aesthetics matter, but functionality matters even more.

Every piece serves a purpose—whether it’s reinforcing a message, building an identity, or capturing an audience’s attention. My goal is to find the right balance between creativity and clarity, between the conceptual and the concrete.

Ideas gain strength when they transform into effective visuals.

I TURN IDEAS INTO IMAGES THAT TELL STORIES. My work goes beyond illustration or design, it’s about building a visual identity that strengthens each message.

From editorial projects to advertising campaigns and digital content, I create pieces that balance concept and aesthetics, ensuring they are both functional and memorable.
