suffering

I`m attaching a poster on which I show my sharp font, which I tried to convey the pain, anger and rage that every person in my country feels. I wanted to convey thinner letters with a wider shape and sharp corners. Between the letters you can read the name of my country, to which this poster is dedicated

explode Font

The font conveys the idea of fireworks. Just like fireworks that spread out from a central point and become more detailed as they expand, my font is designed to provide an experience that requires patience and perseverance from the viewer. As you watch the graphical forms, you will discover the information hidden within, all while being entertained by the visual spectacle.

Slusalke Typeface

Slusalke is one of four experimental typefaces that were created with typographic apparatuses. Typographic apparatuses are experimental objects with movable parts that serve as a template for the design of typographic characters. Each apparatus was based on an everyday object, this one being headphones. These typefaces are concerned with the question of legibility in an alphabet that is not based on existing scripts.

Chelas nha Kau

Chelas nha Kau, means: Chelas my place. The entire visual identity for the film, communication supports and title design was taken from Chelas architecture, from the walls of the people who inhabit the neighborhood. Raw material to design letters, ornaments and illustration, and build a sense of belonging

OUT.FEST 24

Out.fest is an Exploratory Music Festival that takes place in the city of Barreiro. This year’s edition is based on typographic exploration inspired by shapes linked to the culture of the city railways that have existed since 1857. On a visit to the railways workshops, I found panels with joints from locomotive engines, panels rich in shapes, or interior covering foams, textures, etc. That served to create an visual language for the Festival that is based on the exploration of sound.

Magnetizdat DDR – Eastgerman tape underground 1979-1990

Vinyl edition by artists who recorded music on magnetic tape under the Iron Curtain between 1979 and 1990. The typographic work for the vinyl artwork was done manually with magnetic tape from old cassettes, cut, shaped and glued to make the letters, which were then photographed and assembled in photoshop.
The process and aesthetics of this artwork reflect the magnetic origin of the recording and the DIY resilience of these artists in their editions.

White Night

White Night – silkscreen printed announcement poster for the Culture Night at the Department of Design of the Folkwang University of the Arts (located on Zollverein World Heritage Site). Printed by hand in jet-black and yellow-green afterglow color (yes, the poster glows in the dark :-)).

Mycographiæ : Fungal and type matter symbiosis

Mycographiæ proposes typography as living beings through a bio-printing process with biological inks made of molds and yeasts. Like micro-fungi that permeate the layers of life, new forms of symbiotic writings come to life to redefine the experience of an image/letter: a letter that’s now cultivated.
In this act, the fungus no longer reproduces a sign; it digests its form, seizing it to redefine its structure and vitality : the sign gradually gains an organic autonomy that escapes the designer.
