2010-09-19T12:16:00.000-07:00

This is a editorial project.

My theme was the poster, so I had to write an investigation text

and than I presented it as a poster on the streets.

My intention was to make the poster visible,

and what's better for that when someone is taking the trouble of hanging it.

Well, it was also a kind of a subversion of what designers are doing nowadays,

when they do their work (their/our posters)

and present them hanging them proudly at home or at the atelier.

Because truly that is not what the poster is all about.

This worked as a leaflet, so that you could read it classically somehow like a book,

but then gradually it would be unfolded to become what it was, a poster.
Finally I printed it in silkscreen.

~ Drawing

2010-09-19T11:45:00.000-07:00

This was a illustration proposal work for Hedonskate under the quote "Green is better".

The company sells and promotes sports,

more specifically roller skating with two wheels (Inline skates).

So it is good for you and for the environment.

My idea was that we should lead a 'green' way of life before we die,

or even better, to prevent us of dying faster.

So I added "Live longer, Think green... While you can",

while you are living.

The new concept for the Portuguese Company 'Cotec Portugal'.

The company wanted that

when the word innovation was heard that we could be able to associate it with Cotec.

http://www.cotecportugal.pt/

All this work was done during my internship in GOdesign atelier,

which I have to Thank to Nuno Vaz, for the opportunity, and for all the support and help.

http://www.godesign.pt/

It is import to say that I was working in the project of Cotec always with Nuno,

and at some point with more collegues.

Cotec asked us to elaborate its new image/concept, the face of the event,

the stationary, the website, the year report account, and to re-design the logo.

~ Design

2010-09-18T09:42:00.000-07:00

We've elaborated all the graphics needed for the 'Seventh meeting of Cotec'

based on the concept that was worked upon previously.

The stronger idea was of the fifth elements that combined could create a 'Innovator's DNA'.

This was the teses of the primal speaker Hal Gregersen from INSEAD,

and so with that we used the major feature of Cotec,

the arrow, the human draw of an arrow, of people's energy,

to symbolise each element of the 'Innovator's DNA'.

Associating, Observing, Experimenting, Questioning, Networking

The publication navigates through the idea of memory,
it is a document 14 x 14 cm, printed in recycled paper.
The title is Hiroshima,
a reference to the movie 'Hiroshima, mon amour',
of Alain Resnais, screenplay by Marguerite Duras.
In it there is a great deal of images,there is a lot of photographs, cyanotype.
My intention was to bring with the images an ambiance of the past,
ambiguity, blur but yet very clear,
cause a memory is something very strong, printed in our brains.

This project was for an electronic fanzine (e-zine).

We agreed only to use objects and make all things by hand.

It was a really nice group project, we really had fun, and we liked the result.

Drawing ~

2010-02-25T16:56:00.000-08:00

We had to use an object
(the object that we had been drawing and take it out of its context).
So my object was the tool that you can brake the nuts,
and for me it was really essential to take it out of the context.
So I chose another type of drawing,
organic and not so functional, as a drawing of a tool begins to be.
In the case the object, transformed itself in wings,
and other objects of a play, of a dance...

We created a story about our hometown,

we dug through its roots and discovered some amazing things from the past.

Then we created a pretty nice love story
where we could tell all the things that we'd discovered.

We made it all in verse to get some rhythm,
and then I made the illustrations and the design.
