Yuletide Puzzle
Ioana Boroș & Cloudberries
Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of collaborating with Cloudberries to create Yuletide, a puzzle designed exclusively for their winter collection. This project was a true celebration of festive joy — an opportunity to translate the warmth, nostalgia, and sparkle of the holiday season into a detailed, tactile artwork.
Inspired by the simple magic of decorating a Christmas tree, the Yuletide puzzle invites you to build the scene piece by piece — each one adding rhythm, color, and charm until the full picture unfolds.
My goal was to capture that familiar sense of calm and connection that comes with the holidays: slow moments shared with loved ones, a cup of something warm nearby, and the quiet satisfaction of seeing it all come together.
Piece together hours of relaxing fun with this 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, crafted in a small batch for premium quality. Once completed, the puzzle measures 70 cm x 50 cm, making it a perfect size for framing or display. The puzzle features precision-cut pieces that fit together snugly, ensuring a satisfying building experience from start to finish. To make assembly easier, a full-size reference poster is included inside — ideal for guiding you through every colorful detail.
Whether you’re an experienced puzzler or just starting out, this puzzle offers a rewarding challenge and a beautiful finished result you’ll be proud to showcase.
You can shop the Yuletide puzzle now on Cloudberries’ website — I hope it brings cozy, creative joy to your holiday season.

Still Life: Morning Routine
Ioana Boroș & Adalbert Dohotariu
This Still Life photo series was born from a spontaneous invitation that quickly turned into a visual exploration of form, function, and feeling.
Centered around the theme of morning rituals—movement, coffee, reflection—the shoot brings together objects that are part of the daily life and design language.
For this shoot, I curated a selection from my personal collection—objects that embody a spirit of playfulness, color, and intention. Each one contributes to a narrative of daily creativity, whether through material, form, or memory. The visual language is grounded in a bold, energetic palette, chosen deliberately to infuse the scene with contrast, warmth, and joy.
Nothing here is accidental—from the ceramic curves to the graphic lines, every element was placed with care to create a cohesive and immersive composition.
A key feature of the set is Taking Joy Seriously by Camille Walala—an inspiring book that encapsulates the heart of this project. Visually striking and conceptually aligned, it anchors the arrangement both thematically and graphically, reinforcing the message that joy, creativity, and design deserve a place in our daily rituals.
At its core, this project invites a pause—a moment to slow down, notice, and appreciate the intimate beauty of the objects we surround ourselves with. It’s about giving form to feeling, and making space for moments of lightness, play, and personal connection.

The Illustrated Week
Ioana Boroș & AList Magazine
As part of the Gala UAD celebration marking 25 years, I had the privilege of collaborating with AList Magazine on a special visual storytelling project. The concept: to illustrate the essence of each day of the week, transforming everyday routines into vibrant, artistic expressions that celebrate lifestyle, identity, and emotion.
Monday – Shape for Escape: A visual representation of breaking free from the Monday blues, embracing movement, creativity, and fresh starts.
Tuesday – Beauty Tuesday: A celebration of self-care, makeup, skincare, and all things beauty.
Wednesday – Fashionable Wednesday: A stylish tribute to midweek trends, fashion statements, and bold personal style.
Thursday – Thursday Interviews: Showcasing inspiring stories, meaningful conversations, and insightful perspectives.
Friday – Friday Fever: Capturing the excitement and energy of the weekend approaching.
Weekend – Keeping Up with AList: A vibrant mix of lifestyle, entertainment, and everything you need to stay in the know. This collaboration was all about bringing the days of the week to life through art, making each one feel special in its own way.
Warm thanks to Lucian Broscatean for making the connection and bringing this inspiring collaboration to life. This project was featured in AList Magazine, Issue No. 11, as part of the Gala UAD 25th anniversary celebration.
Reasons for Joy -
Ioana Boroș & Kiss Fm
In a year that challenged us all, Kiss FM set out to rewrite 2020 — by shifting our focus to the little things that made us smile. Together with their listeners, they aimed to find 2,020 reasons for joy, proving that even in difficult times, happiness is all around us. Listeners shared their moments of joy, and Kiss FM gathered them all. I had the privilege of bringing some of these heartwarming moments to life, through beautiful illustrations. This project was a celebration of positivity, a reminder that, no matter what, there’s always something to smile about.
