ABOUT NCD

Somos // We are

bold empaths curious

The beating corazón of your brand is the story it tells. We love ideating, creating and building those stories and every detail in between. 

Nicte Creative Design is a multi-cultural award-winning graphic design and branding firm for visionary companies. We invigorate brand awareness through our empathy-driven methodology, enhance community connections and amplify your unique brand position.

Ixchel Goddess of Love. Nicte Creative Design.

when the brand was born

During the conceptual phase of NCD (back in 2005), Nicte wanted to create a brand identity that represented her given names and defined her love for design.

Her given names are Mayan goddess names: Nicte (nik-teh), goddess of the flowers, and Ixchel (eex-chel), goddess of love and the moon. She was mesmerized by the symbol the Mayans created to depict the goddess Ixchel — the beautiful curves and shapes used inspired the birth of Nicte Creative Design’s brand identity. "Nicte" embodies blooming brands, and "Ixchel" nourishes the enduring love for design.

Our roots grew

We believe brands start with an idea seed. It sprouts into action and starts to build its roots. When it matures, its roots go deep into the ground to nurture the fruits it continually bears.

The inspiration:

Ixchel Goddess of Love. Nicte Creative Design.

The early stages:

The evolution:

We evolved and rebranded after 10+ years in business. We’re still rooted in our Mayan goddess, but our mark also embeds in the oceans, the energy from the moon, and honoring who you are. Above all, we’ve embraced our true bold cultural presence.
