Hi, I’m Marina Pavlova — the creative mind and hands behind Ink & Pixels.
I’ve been working as a freelance graphic designer for the last six years, helping brands craft visuals that feel refined, intentional, and alive.
My background is a little unconventional — I first studied engineering and earned an MBA, but eventually realized that what truly excites me is design.
I followed that spark, studying at schools like GRANICH, Uprock, and completing an advanced graphic design course at Yandex Practicum —
and I haven’t looked back since.

I’m passionate about the structure and rhythm of good design — the perfect grid, a harmonious layout, typography that speaks with character. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with clients such as Cyprus Sotheby’s International Realty, Hope For Children, and Illy, creating visuals that help their brands stand out with clarity and confidence. I’m especially proud that several of my real estate clients received European Property Awards in both 2024 and 2025 — recognition that reflects the quality and consistency we’ve built together through design.
But design isn’t my only creative outlet. I have a deep love for beautiful letters — quite literally. I’ve collaborated with event agencies and wedding planners across Cyprus, creating bespoke handwritten pieces, from invitations
to engraved gifts. Calligraphy, for me, is another way to slow down and bring human warmth into the digital world.
Outside of work, I like to keep life dynamic. I used to teach kickboxing, and that discipline and energy still shape how I approach projects — with focus, determination, and a bit of fun. These days, you’ll find me at CrossFit or Hyrox training sessions, walking my dogs, or swimming in the turquoise Cyprus sea.
