Becoming Home
How do you belong when everything feels different? Becoming Home is a visually poetic journey about adapting to new environments and the feeling of being caught between two worlds. Through Harper’s story, this book explores the process of letting go, embracing change, and slowly finding a sense of home—while still feeling like a stranger.
- A Heartfelt Story About Finding Home While Feeling Like a Stranger
- A Visual Exploration of Adaptation Through Color & Storytelling
- An Immersive Journey Through Change & Identity
Hi! I’m Mónica, a designer and illustrator based in Berlin. My work began in branding and UX/UI design, but illustration became a way to tell personal stories. After A Long Nap, inspired by my dog Friedrich, I wanted to explore my own experience as an immigrant. Becoming Home reflects this journey—navigating change, identity, and belonging through visual storytelling.
