Bianca Albino
About Bianca
Bodega is the creative practice of designer Bianca Albino, bringing together her branding work and an evolving home objects studio.
Based in Recife, Brazil, and working remotely with clients across countries and languages, Bianca approaches branding as a process of discovery. The name Bodega comes from those small neighborhood spaces that exist in both English and Portuguese: places where you might walk in looking for one thing and unexpectedly find something you treasure. Bianca brings that same sense of curiosity, exchange, and discovery to her work with brands.
Best Fit
Bianca loves working with retail, creative, service, and hospitality businesses that understand the value of good design and are willing to dig deeper into what their business is really about.
Her ideal clients are open, collaborative, and comfortable speaking their minds. Bianca wants to hear the founder’s story, understand the original dream behind the business, and build the kind of relationship where both sides have the freedom to challenge ideas and follow interesting directions.

Brand Discovery
For businesses that know what they do but struggle to articulate what their brand stands for, Bianca offers Brand Discovery as an additional step before design. She helps uncover and document the brand’s pillars, values, and language, creating a foundation that can guide both the design process and future business decisions.
Brand Design
Building visual identities that come from the truth of the business rather than trends or what competitors are doing. Bianca translates the feeling, personality, and story of a brand into a visual system designed to differentiate it while adding value in a genuine way.
Custom Logo + Lettering Design
Creating original logos and lettering that give businesses a distinct visual language of their own.
What Makes Bianca different?
Bianca starts with how a brand should feel, not simply how it should look.
Her process is rooted in listening and research. She gets to know the people behind a business, how they work, what they care about, and the story that led them there. That understanding becomes the foundation for design that feels specific to the business rather than dictated by trends or competitors.
For Bianca, working directly with founders also creates more room for creative freedom and experimentation. Her goal is to differentiate a business in the most genuine way possible while creating something her clients can confidently carry into their next chapter.
Client Perspective
“Bianca was able to translate what this house means to us perfectly! And she was able to do it not only through her talent, but because of her true knowledge of the space and the people who inhabit it. We don’t know what strikes us as most beautiful, the design or her words.”
— Fernanda Macêdo & Fabiano Melo, Casa 233
“Bianca showed us who we are.”
— Scott Miles, Atypikal
Favorite Advice
Rather than focusing on how you want your brand to look, think about how you want it to feel.
Bianca encourages clients to begin with the feeling they want to create and let the visual identity grow from there. That creates space for a brand that communicates something true about the business rather than simply following a particular aesthetic or trend.
