When creativity meets purpose, the result is powerful. At Living Stones Foundation’s Data Visionaries Program, Natália Bertoli is proof that great design can do more than just look good — it can ignite transformation.
As a graphic designer with a deep commitment to social impact, Natália joined the program to bring her unique blend of visual strategy and human empathy to causes that matter. Through initiatives like Causesphere, she’s helped shape how mission-driven work is perceived, understood, and remembered.
Academic Excellence
Natália’s passion for design started early. She pursued dual bachelor’s degrees in Design — first at Fean Energia and later at UNISUL — where she deepened her expertise in both visual storytelling and strategic design thinking. Supplementing her studies with technical training from Imagine School and a UX certification from EBAC, she built a versatile foundation for her creative work.
Her educational journey wasn’t just about skills — it was about shaping a worldview.
“Design helped me understand that creativity has power. I always knew I wanted to use that power to help others.”
Professional Experience
Before volunteering with Living Stones, Natália honed her skills across several design roles:
- At BK Digital, she created landing pages, logos, and UX-focused interfaces.
- At FCDL and FAAS, she produced video content, event presentations, and marketing visuals for real-world campaigns.
- At Imagine School and Schaefer Yachts, she worked on social media management, client support, and digital communication strategies.
Each role contributed to her understanding of how design can be a bridge — between users and brands, goals and results, ideas and action.
Impact at Living Stones
At Living Stones Foundation, Natália dove into the Causesphere project — an initiative designed to connect global social causes with visibility and support.
Her challenge? To visually capture the heart of a complex, multi-stakeholder initiative. She responded with five bold logo proposals, each exploring a different facet of the project’s identity — from unity and diversity to innovation and trust.
“It was about more than a logo. I wanted the identity to reflect the mission — to give it a soul.”
But she did not stop there. Natália also crafted a complete brand manual, setting standards for typography, color usage, iconography, and tone. This living document now serves as a visual compass for the project’s communications, partner outreach, and marketing.
“Natália’s work brought clarity, elegance, and strategic depth to one of our most ambitious programs. Her designs don’t just speak — they resonate.”

Her UX mindset ensures that every design decision — from layout to color — serves both form and function. Whether crafting a logo or designing a digital experience, she prioritizes clarity, empathy, and accessibility.
Personal Qualities
Beyond the pixels and platforms, what truly defines Natália is her heart. A deeply empathetic and proactive individual, she approaches every project with humility and curiosity. She actively listens, incorporates feedback, and embraces collaboration as a path to better solutions.
