Lucía Nolasco, better known as Lunol, is a Peruvian graphic designer with a passion for calligraphy, lettering, and typography. She discovered her love for letters in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2012, where she studied with renowned artists such as Silvia Cordero Vega and Marina Soria, in addition to Jaime de Albarracín and Claude Dietrich in Lima, Peru. She also honed her skills by participating in workshops with Ale Paul, Yani and Guille, Martina Flor, and Gemma O'Brien.
She has worked on major projects in branding, retail, publishing, events, and packaging, including the "Innato" project—a package design where 80% of the calligraphy was done with a flex nib pen—which earned her bronze at the 2015 Pentawards in London alongside Infinito Consultores.
