Juliana Aschwanden-Vilaça
I was born in Brazil in 1977 and studied Architecture in São Paulo, where I later completed a post-graduation in environmental management.
After moving to Switzerland, I graduated with a Master’s degree in landscape architecture at the Hochschule für Technik in Rapperswil, in order to be able to work more actively in the field of the environment.
After several years in the environmental industry, I decided to contribute to the environment through art. So I graduated with a Master’s degree in illustration at the Lucerne School of Art and Design.
Since then, I have been working as a freelance illustrator and as a landscape architect in Sursee. In addition to nature, I also like to illustrate other topics such as architectural illustration, music, and "everyday life".
