Fran Bragança is a Rio de Janeiro-based graphic designer, botanical illustrator, and surface pattern designer with a practice dating to 2003. A graduate in product design from PUC-RJ, she has worked for established Brazilian fashion brands and in 2019 pivoted toward hand-painted botanical pattern work. She operates frandesign.com.br, selling hand-painted bags and accessories under her own brand, alongside developing surface patterns for licensing and print-on-demand.

Botanical watercolour and gouache compositions inspired by the interior of Rio de Janeiro and its native flora, fauna, and traditional visual culture. The portfolio features rich botanical repeat designs with a warm, lush colour palette and hand-painted character. The work has a boho-chic register suited to women's lifestyle and accessories markets.

Hand-painting in watercolour and gouache is the primary method, supplemented by formal botanical drawing training completed at the National School of Tropical Botany in Rio de Janeiro. The product design background (PUC-RJ) informs layout and repeat construction. Graphic design practice runs alongside the pattern work.
