About Me

I’m Aycan Yılmaz, a graphic designer and digital illustrator with a background in architecture and computational design. My work focuses on clarity, storytelling, and character, balancing visual structure with expressive illustrations.

I blend design strategy with visual narrative to bridge logic and emotion, working across creative direction, illustration, graphic design, and social media content design.

I create impactful designs with clear messaging and strong visual character, including branding systems, editorial layouts, posters, and product designs such as packaging, and printable goods.

Social Media

I craft engaging content for digital platforms and communities, including campaign visuals, static and motion graphics, Reels and TikToks, and cohesive content sets.
