About

Estefania Chacon

“ It starts as a spark, an idea that becomes an insight. A concept that is then sketched on paper, to be developed, designed, built & communicated.”

That is what Estefania Chacon´s career has been: a series of ideas that led her to design more than 40 projects in three different countries. Including a boutique hotel at the beach in Peru, the interiors of Porche Tower in Sunny Isles Florida, and the logo & visual identity for an NGO that aims to provide free online health support for Ecuador during Covid-19.

Through comprehending design, Estefania gained interest in further understanding of business and communication, leading her to obtain a Master in Business Administration(MBA) , and a Master in Visual and Ditital Media: creation and management.

Estefania is the founder of Mimba Studio, a multidisciplinary design firm, that develops projects in:
