Anastacia Barleva

I'm Anastacia, an art director and brand designer. I help established brands evolve: finding what works, refining what doesn't, and building a visual system a team can carry forward.
I start with what makes a brand recognizable. Then I bring its typography, imagery, and everyday materials into a more considered whole. My test is simple: as the brand grows, does it still feel like itself?
Over 15 years, I've worked across healthcare, financial services, real estate, culture, and hospitality. I lead projects from concept through implementation, collaborating with the people who will use the work every day.
I studied Studio Art and Art History at the University of Massachusetts, Boston. That foundation still shapes how I look, edit, and build.
Portfolio PDFFind the strong core, refine the identity, and make room for what comes next.
Guidelines and templates that make good design repeatable.
Photography concepts, creative production, and image curation.
Presentations, reports, and print that make complex ideas legible.
