Laura Scofield

Hi, I’m Laura Scofield, a Brazilian, New York–based graphic designer. I’m a Design Director at The Atlantic, working on projects that span branding, events, editorial, and web design, and a part-time faculty member at Parsons School of Design.

My work has been recognized by the Type Directors Club, Society of Publication Designers, D&AD, Cannes Lions, Red Dot, Print, iF and Brazil Design Awards. 

I also served as a jury member on the Type Directors Club, Latin American Design Award and Brazil Design Awards. I’m a visiting critic at Parsons Communication Design and former AIGA NY board member.

I also research and lecture about vexillology — the scientific study of the history, symbolism, and usage of flags, or by extension, any interest in flags in general  🏴‍☠️

Brazil Design Stand in Cannes Lions: stand design to represent Brazilian design at the Cannes Lions Festival in an eye-catching manner. The theme “Brazil. Unique Blend. Unique Design” was translated into a large mosaic of postcards. Each postcard worked individually, though when displayed together they formed a unique visual image depicting the country in its cultural and visual diversity. Visitors were invited to interact with the panel and thus take a “piece of Brazil” with them when heading back home.
