About Me

Hello, I’m Elisa Rosas — a graphic designer and editorial creative based in Houten, the Netherlands.

Originally from Mexico, I began my career as a designer and editor for Cinéfila magazine, followed by work with Traveler and Arte Culinario. My role involved coordinating contributors and shaping the visual and editorial direction of each publication. After moving to the Netherlands, I created Orígenes, a cultural magazine concept for the Mexican Embassy in The Hague.

One of the projects I’m most proud of is Nicholas and the Magic Notebook, a children’s book I wrote and designed as part of my university thesis. The book won the APOYARTE Award in 2010, and 10,000 copies were printed with the support of the Mexican government. Its purpose is to help children identify and express their fears in a gentle and supportive way.

Today, I combine my love for visual storytelling with technical skills in color theory, composition, and art history. I enjoy creating images that are not only beautiful but also purposeful and functional.

Spanish is my native language, and I’m also fluent in English and Dutch.
