Dima BertoluchiGraphic Designer and Researcher [based in Bali]

About

I have devoted my entire life to studying fine art, graphic design, rhythm, design, and the construction of meaning. For the past 22 years, I have been doing this professionally and earning a living from it. I am a firm believer in design thinking when approaching any task. I have a fairly extensive repertoire of tools and techniques, and I continue to learn something new every day.

I was born in the USSR in the city of Leningrad (now Saint-Petersburg, Russia) in 1985 in the family of an artist. Since childhood I loved to draw and received an academic art education in graphics and painting. I entered the design industry when I was 19 years old. And I created my first commercial logo at the age of 20.

For the past four years, I have been a partner at Manychat, serving as Art Director on the brand design team. During this time, I have been honored to make a significant contribution to the development of the Manychat brand. For example, I actively participated in the rebranding in 2022, worked on creating numerous sub-brands and advertising campaigns, and oversaw the company's flagship event, Instagram Summit by Manychat, for three consecutive years.

As of today, I have been in the industry for over 22 years and have completed over 367+ projects in various fields and of various sizes, most of which still exist and can be googled. This is a key value for me — to verify the outcome of my work is timeless.

My way of working is not to comfort my design ego by creating crazy art concepts (which is sometimes cool), but to find a balance between art and business targets. My design has to be effective and beneficial to society — and that's why I won't work with alcohol and tobacco brands, casinos, weapons, religion organization and any other areas that I consider harmful to society. Budgets are not important. What matters is what you leave behind for the world.
