The Studio

Dept. of is the illustration and design studio by Venezuelan-born, Brooklyn-based artist Carlos Miranda. He taps his inner child to bring ideas to life that are colorful, bold and have a playful sensibility. His goal is to spark joy by creating art you encounter in everyday life: in the ads you see, the products you use, the clothing you wear and everything in between.

Carlos has worked across editorial, advertising, branding, publishing, and tech. His work has been recognized by American Illustration, the Society of Illustrators, and The One Club for Creativity.

Clients: TBWA, Klondike, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, VIA, Schwarzkopf, L'Oréal, Puma, and beyond.
