About me
My name is Raúl Gil. I've focused most of my career on communication and visual design, helping build many brands and digital products, from conception to their full development. For eight years I wrote on ‘2Blck', a blog in which I came to write more than 500 posts related to art, design and technology. Currently, I write on Medium occasionally.
I also love video games and playful applications, especially if they carry with them some kind of educational purpose. I feel comfortable making modest projects with extreme care. Personal projects are indispensable for me, since I deeply value exploration and constant learning. You can contact me for any work inquiries and you can also check my more personal illustration work here.
Design influences
Although I have always valued those designers who can reduce their projects to the simplest and most distilled possible expression, I especially admire those others who—while still providing a quality, honest and durable design—have been able to build up a brave, bold, powerful and innovative visual language over time. Designers like Vince Frost, Neville Brody, The Designers Republic, Build, Chipp Kidd, Spin, Toko or Me Company are usually in my mind.
Clients
I'm used to work with young technology-based companies, but over the past 15 years I have worked for large and small clients in brand design, UI, UX, infographics and graphic design via several companies, like Elogia, Profesionalia, íncipy, Periferia Creative or Baku. Clients like Adobe, Ajuntament de Barcelona, Almirall, Camper, Deusto, Ikea, Gas Natural Fenosa, la Caixa, PwC, Promega, Racc or SAP. Always willing to work with great new clients!
