Graphic Designer
Based in Tijuana

With a strong background in Art Direction and Graphic Design, Gonzalo is celebrated for his creative and aesthetic expertise, backed by a Bachelor's of Arts in Strategic Graphic Design. His work delves into the intricate interplay between culture, music, and artistic environments, with a distinct focus on motion, semiotics, and symbolic languages.
In 2015, Gonzalo founded Praxis Collective, a creative hub dedicated to empowering Latinx artists and fostering a horizontal, collaborative network. When Praxis entered an indefinite hiatus in 2020, Gonzalo launched El Dorado, an independent studio focused on crafting distinctive visual narratives for a diverse range of clients.
Shortly thereafter, he joined Dapper Labs as a Senior Graphic Designer, for several years, playing a key role in the building and launch of NBA Top Shot and similar dApps on the Flow blockchain, pioneering a new era of digital collectibles in sports and gaming.
Previously, as Creative Director at Vidmob, Gonzalo leveraged creative insights and data-driven strategies to craft compelling digital campaigns for global brands. Today, he collaborates with teams and startups around the world, delivering cutting-edge visual experiences that push the boundaries of design and innovation.
