Cherries

Hello daddy, hello mom
I’m your Ch- Ch- Cherry Bomb!

All started with a coffee cup

That's right! Nora & Gabo shared a coffee cup with their first client in a small coffee shop lost in a corner in Mexico City, on an afternoon in early 2010; what this first client didn’t know was that many dreams and hopes were placed in that coffee cup.

Many years and hundreds (or maybe thousands) of cups of coffee later, with much more experience, a bigger and more talented team, some recognitions, many great days, may bad days with an occasional tear, we continue to share coffee cups, dreams, and hopes. But now, these dreams and hopes are not only ours but of all those people who have believed in our work.

Our manifest

We are Cherry Bomb, an independent, multidisciplinary creative studio based in Mexico City.

We are a small and beautiful studio, with a lot of talent and love behind it. We are a small gang of introverted nerds, committed to bringing our best, to make this world a better place.

We have been developing endless Branding, Illustration, Packaging, and Web Development projects for a variety of clients in Mexico, the United States, Spain, Australia, the Middle East, and other parts of the world for just over 10 years.

Like a catchy song, the kind you can't stop singing, or a great movie you can't stop talking about, we're Pop. We're Pop! because we are children of the '90s, children of Pop Culture. We are Pop because what can be more pop than a cherry on top of a milkshake?

We love the use of color, illustration, and the infinite use of creativity. We are Pop! because we love our families, our friends, homemade food, little plants, and puppies that greet you on the street.

We know that the world can be a better place with music, smiles, culture, and education… “We can be heroes, just for one day.”

We are the
Cherry Bombs! 🍒

Nora

Nora

Founder & Art Director

Less complex than people think. Fan from Hell of mystery and True-crime podcast, salty and spicy snacks, wild hairstyles, weird and cool outfits and salsa songs.

Still learning to be an adult, to take care of my plants, my dog, and my friends (although I’m terrified to meet new people).

Not much more to say. Simply one day I had a dream and take a step ahead ❤️.

Gabo

Gabo

Founder & Creative Director

I’m not that quoting kind of person, but here is one I like: “Never let anyone make you feel that you don’t deserve what you want”. It’s not a deep thought of some big thinker, it’s from a movie: the lovely 90’s teen movie “10 Things I Hate About You” and it’s said by Heath Ledger to a young Joseph-Gordon. Fucking mantra!

I don’t have a fortune, a big ass car, or a fancy life (I don’t want it). I’m just a simple guy who loves melancholic & sugary Indie Pop songs, ride on my bike and live a lovely calm life next to my girlfriend and my dog. That’s my kind of happiness.🐶

Hein

Hein

Co-Founder & Web Developer

Mine is programming… it reminds me when I was a kid who used to disarm my toys to see how it is constructed and how it works from inside.

Now I still do the same but backwards: writing pieces of logic which modify markup styled by declarative styles.

Often I like writing code at the rhythm of electronic music so I am in a kind of active meditation 💭.

Fer

Fer

Graphic Designer

People may say I am an old spirit in a young guy’s body… they’re absolutely right.

I’m a huge fan of bingeing the same shows over and over, scary movies, and drag shows, taking pictures of everything I find beautiful (even though I never share them), and baking my grandmother’s recipes while listening to classic Latin songs.

Just a guy with great dreams to accomplish and lots of things to learn about, but in the meantime, I keep finding happiness in making people feel good thanks to my creations 🍰.

Kari

Kari

Graphic Designer & Illustrator

An introvert in the big city.

I’m a big nerd, anime fan, K-Dramas, Sanrio vibes, paranormal stuff, True- crime podcast, memes, cumbias, and weird stuff.

I love illustration so much! In fact, all I want is to draw pretty doodles on everything, all the time. I’m still learning a lot about everything, which makes the journey more exciting 🫰.

Tomasita

Tomasita

Intern

I’ve been working since I was just a puppy. Nora and Gabo adopted me, gave me a cool name, and brought me to Cherry Bomb, where I have the most important job. I’m the one in charge of making the boys happy! It is a very demanding job, imagine having to be pretty and playful all day (when in reality I prefer to be calm and introverted, I would say that I am a dog with a cat personality)

Luckily I’m doing very well, I have unlimited hugs and cuddles 🥰.
