About Natale
I’m passionate about using design as a strategic tool to drive radical innovation and tackle some of society’s most pressing challenges.
My work goes beyond crafting user-centered solutions for products, services, systems, and brands—I aim to create designs that make a real difference. By blending creativity with strategy, I help push boundaries and find impactful solutions that not only meet user needs but also contribute to solving larger societal problems.
For me, design is a powerful force for positive change, and to make a meaningful impact.
What people are saying
"Natale is highly skilled in all phases of the design process, whether it’s insight work, analysis, prototyping, idea generation, illustrations, film production, or 3D modeling, to name a few. She is thorough and well-prepared for the tasks she takes on, and she excels at including those around her in the planned processes. Natale often delivers beyond expectations. Her strong graphic communication and visualization skills help create a shared understanding of the opportunities and complexities of the tasks within the teams she works with. As a designer, Natale demonstrates an impressively broad range of expertise."

“Natale systematically built a new brand profile that supports the company’s value proposition, employee engagement and uniqueness. The new profile was realized in promotional video, sales posters, the product user interface, customer support- and communications. This work has yielded significant benefits for Kantega SSO. We have anchored our value proposition, goals, and identity among all employees, ensuring that customers experience a cohesive customer journey and a professional profile across all touchpoints. As a result, we have seen a noticeable increase in web traffic and direct sales.”
