SENIOR Designer & ART DIRECTOR

About

I’m Cezar Bianchi — a senior designer and art director from Brazil, now based in Chicago Houston, with over 15 years of experience.

My work lives at the intersection of branding and visual design. I thrive in spaces that value thinking, refining, and the courage to explore bold ideas — crafting digital experiences that leave a meaningful impact.

Currently, I’m a Staff Visual Designer at GE HealthCare, where I help shape a robust design system that spans everything from mobile apps to MRI machines, redefining how healthcare design can feel more human and connected.

Before GE, I spent four exciting years with Motorola’s CXD team, contributing to projects like the Moto app and the Quick View Display interface for the RAZR foldable — blending usability with delight in everyday interactions.

Throughout my career, I’ve moved fluidly between experience design and branding, always with a detailed eye for accessibility and clarity. Along the way, my work has been recognized by the Brazilian Biennial of Design, HOW In-House Design Awards, Dieline, Red Dot Awards, The One Club Awards, and Brasil Design Awards.

For me, design is more than problem-solving — it’s about creating experiences that connect people, spark curiosity, and stand the test of time.

_about-2025

I’m currently living in the Houston area, discovering a whole new side of the U.S. with my family. I have two incredible kids, Leonardo and Julio, who fill our days with laughter, noise, and endless surprises. My wife and I share a lively home with two whippets and a growing jungle of plants—another shared obsession around here.

As a proud Brazilian, soccer has always been part of who I am. I love playing whenever I can and never miss a Palmeiras match on TV. Music is another big piece of my life—heavy and hard rock are always on my playlist, helping me clear my head and recharge.

Life isn’t just about work (even though design is one of my biggest passions). I make sure to spend time with my kids, whether it’s kicking the ball around with my youngest or listening to underground metal with my oldest, who’s now learning drums. I also enjoy photography and plan to set up a small home studio soon to experiment with analog graphic design—getting back to the tactile side of creativity, with ink, paint, and print.
