MAURA BEAR
[BENÍTEZ ARELLANO]

I’m a graphic designer and illustrator with a background in industrial design. After changing paths, my practice grew through experimentation, constant learning, and the people I’ve been fortunate to collaborate with.

I enjoy learning, blending techniques, and turning stories into visual systems. My work often reflects my love for food, music, and art—and I’m especially drawn to projects in those areas. You can take a closer look into my process here.

PORT XIV
VISUAL IDENTITY

CLIENT
Port XIV

ROLES
Graphic Design, Illustration

TEAM
Sonia Malpeso: Creative Direction


This page gathers a series of explorations made for Port XIV, a beautiful seaside restaurant in Asilah, Morocco.

The colors and typography are  inconsistent, as these pieces aren’t meant to represent final designs. Instead, they offer a glimpse into the exploratory process: observing elements from the restaurant, abstracting them, and translating them into symbols, textures, and graphic elements that could later evolve into a cohesive visual identity.
