Hi! My Name Is,
Stefano Fontana
I am a Graphic Designer from Guelph, On. I specialize in long talks over coffee and making people’s brand come to life. Give me a shout! I look forward to speaking with you.
A Little About Myself,
My name is Stefano Fontana, a UI / UX & Identity Designer from the Greater Toronto Area. I specialize in creating unique and personalized brands for all my clients- working with them through every step.
When I’m not designing you can find me hanging out with my wife Laci and son Leo, playing my Xbox, listening to the Last Stand Media podcasts, or playing a Foo Fighters record on vinyl.
Let’s create something together.
Cheers!
Give me a shout!
If you have any questions or are interested in working with me, please feel free to connect with me using the form below. It would be a pleasure to sit down for a coffee and solve your branding needs.
