Patricia Caruana Featured in In-Depth Interview on Creative Process, Career Growth, and the Power of Simplicity in Design

The Annapolis-based designer shares honest lessons from 12+ years in brand identity-offering a rare look into the rhythms, rituals, and realities of creative work.

New Jersey, US, 1st November 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Patricia Caruana, a seasoned graphic designer, brand strategist, and founder of Caruana Creative, is the subject of a newly released, in-depth interview exploring her creative process, personal philosophy, and the lessons learned from over 12 years in the world of identity design.

In the feature, Patricia offers rare, candid insights into what it truly means to build brands that endure. She opens up about her daily routines, the rituals that fuel her productivity, and how early influences-including a creative household in suburban Baltimore-shaped her visual sensibility. From leading major rebrands at a wellness startup to founding her own independent studio, Caruana's journey is as practical as it is inspiring.

Among the topics explored are:

Why simplicity is often misunderstood in branding
How intentional deep work and analog tools spark creativity
The importance of revisiting your portfolio-not for vanity, but for growth
How saying "no" became a turning point in her career
A personal story about a costly mistake that became one of her best lessons
Known for her clean, timeless aesthetic and human-centered approach, Patricia emphasizes the importance of inclusive design and emotional clarity in branding. Her reflections go beyond industry trends, offering a grounded look at what it takes to build meaningful, enduring visual identities.

The interview also touches on her creative resets-often inspired by long walks with her rescue greyhound, Matisse-and how stepping away from the screen can lead to better, braver work.

This feature is a must-read for designers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in a slower, more intentional form of visual storytelling.
