Meet the founder
I'm Victoria Nilbrink, a Creative Director, designer, and founder of VICI Studio.
Born in Miami and raised in Sweden, I've always been fascinated with travel, capturing moments, connecting with people places, stories, and experiences. Growing up between cultures shaped the way I see the world—and ultimately the way I approach design.
The studio wasn't born from a business plan. It was born from curiosity.
The Story Behind VICI STUDIO

The Story Behind VICI STUDIO *
For as long as I can remember, I've been drawn to stories, people, and the things that make us feel connected.
Long before I ever called myself a designer, I was the kid scrapbooking memories, cutting up my mom’s 90s fashion magazines and finding creative ways to bring ideas to life. Creativity was never something I studied—it was simply something I couldn't stop doing.
I simply fell in love with the process of creating, learning, and finding beauty in the little details.
I started small. Spending nights and weekends teaching myself design, building websites, experimenting, making mistakes, and starting over again.
I was designing websites for friends. Taking freelance projects. Saying yes before I felt ready. Sharing my work before it felt perfect.
I had no idea what I was doing. I just created, shared my work, somewhere, every day. And one day, something happened. What started as a side hobby became something much bigger…
Looking back, I realize I wasn't just teaching myself design—I was finding my voice.
Who We Are
Every brand has a story, a purpose, and a vision for where it wants to go. My approach is rooted in understanding the people behind the brand before creating anything at all. Through strategy, storytelling, and thoughtful design, I help transform ideas into experiences that people remember.
-
Before we create, we listen. We identify the foundation that will guide every creative decision moving forward.
-
Integrity, creativity, and empathy shape the way we work. These aren't just words—they’re the foundation of everything we build.
-
What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead. What sets us apart isn’t just our process—it’s the intention behind it. We take time to understand, explore, and create with purpose at every turn.
-
Behind every successful brand is a story worth telling—and helping people tell those stories is why I do what I do. While the work has evolved, the mission remains the same: create with intention, stay endlessly curious, always authentic, design to make people feel.
This is why vici studio exists today
Not simply to create beautiful brands. But to help passionate people bring their vision to life.
Because I know what it feels like to have an idea that keeps you awake at night.
To dream about building something meaningful. To wonder if anyone else can see what you see.
Who We Are
Some of the most rewarding moments in my career haven't been awards, launches, or campaigns. They've been the conversations with founders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries who trust me to help shape something they deeply believe in.
Today, VICI Studio partners with hospitality, luxury, lifestyle, wellness, entertainment, and purpose-driven brands to create thoughtful identities, digital experiences, and campaigns that connect people through meaningful storytelling.
Because behind every successful brand is a story worth telling—and helping people tell those stories is why I do what I do. While the work has evolved, the mission remains the same:
The most meaningful brands aren't built by chasing trends. They're built by understanding people—and creating something worth remembering.
-
My career began in CRM marketing and communications, giving me a unique perspective that sits at the intersection of creativity, business strategy, and audience behavior. While many designers focus solely on aesthetics, I've always been equally interested in understanding the people on the other side of the screen—what inspires them, what motivates them, and what creates lasting emotional connections. That foundation continues to influence every project I lead today.

The stories people carry with them.
At the heart of every project is a belief that great design isn't just about how something looks—it's about how it makes people feel.
And when strategy, storytelling, and design come together with intention, brands become more than businesses.
They become experiences. memories. moments that worth remembering. Because sometimes the best things are never left behind…They are the stories people carry with them.

My Approach
I built an entire career by teaching myself design, jumping into the unknown, taking risks that didn’t make sense at the time, but felt right in my heart.
Design isn’t what I do, it’s who I am. And I use it as a tool to convey the world around me through visual storytelling, content, photographs, short films, and more importantly, by always sharing my work before I feel ready.
By doing so, I discovered one truth: creativity, emotional connection, leading with the heart, taking a leap, and listening to your intuition are the key ingredients to success. This is how we connect with people.
Human Connection
We believe the strongest brands are built through human connection. Every project begins by listening, understanding, and uncovering what makes your story worth telling.
Create Fearlessly
We embrace curiosity, experimentation, and bold thinking—pushing beyond what's expected to create work that feels fresh, memorable, and uniquely its own.
Always Authentic
We approach every project with empathy, authenticity, and genuine care for the people behind the brand. Because the most meaningful work doesn't come from trends—it comes from intention.
Lasting impact
We build with clarity, act with integrity, and always stay curious.
