Hi, I’m Daniela

Portrait of Daniela Ciarnota ( founder of MIADANIELA Design ), surface pattern designer creating collections for packaging, stationery and lifestyle products.

Hi, I'm Daniela, a Romanian surface pattern designer creating thoughtful collections for packaging, stationery and lifestyle products.

My inspiration comes from places and moments that people naturally connect with gardens, seaside landscapes, charming houses, vintage fairs and everyday details. I enjoy transforming these ideas into cohesive collections that feel warm, timeless and ready for real products.

Every collection starts with a story before it becomes a pattern. Rather than focusing on characters alone, my collections are about the feeling of a quiet afternoon by the sea, a walk through a blooming garden, the charm of a village street, or the nostalgia of a summer fair. I hope people recognize a memory, a place, or an emotion before they notice the individual motifs.

Every collection is designed as a complete visual world, where hero prints, coordinates and color palettes work together to tell one cohesive story while remaining practical for real products.

When I'm not illustrating, I'm usually sketching new ideas, exploring nature with my family, or imagining the next collection waiting to come to life.

I design collections with real product application in mind, helping brands translate pattern into cohesive market-ready products.

Form packaging and stationery to textiles and home decor, each design is created to feel natural, functional and visually engaging across different surfaces.
