It's an innovative and people-centric company with a focus on providing quality services to help individuals find a great place to live with professionalism and peace of mind.
The main goal was to create an uncomplicated but powerful visual identity, capable of conveying the brand's values in a modern and elegant way.
The main challenges were:
- Differentiating themselves from other companies in the segment;
- Conveying confidence and professionalism but still looking youthful;
- Being modern but also sophisticated;
- Referring to the real estate sector in an uncomplicated way.
An archetype of the idea of a residence is the construction composed of a gable roof, a model easily recognized as synonymous with a house. Thus, the symbol is a direct reference to Atalea's field of activity (residences) and the initial of its name.")

I went for a fun illustration that highlights the belly bump, and I added a clean wrap element to subtly showcase the product. I also came up with some icons that easily show off the product's benefits.")

• Nominee for the “Creativity with a Conscience” award 2022: https://en.99designs.pt/best-design…conscience
I wanted to create a design that would capture the essence of hope and healing. I began by crafting a colorful geometric pattern that would draw the eye and convey a sense of energy and vitality.
To complement the pattern, I chose a simple and clean layout for the label, using a modern sans-serif font that is both elegant and legible, along with a script font for playfulness. The design is meant to be both eye-catching and soothing, reflecting the idea of beauty and comfort in the face of difficult challenges.
Ultimately, my goal was to create a label that would not only be visually appealing, but also help to raise awareness and support for low-survival cancers. I am proud to have played a part in this project and I hope that its message of hope and healing will resonate with all who use it.")

I focused on creating a minimalist and elegant design that would let the photos take center stage, while still providing a festive and holiday-appropriate backdrop. With this collection, couples can celebrate their first holiday season as newlyweds in a way that feels both personal and polished.")

Their projects are designed to enhance higher education, foster sustainable job creation, and safeguard the nation's diverse wildlife. Equatorial Guinea, the only Spanish-speaking country in Africa, is home to a wide variety of primates and sea turtle species.
The client's objective was to incorporate two powerful elements: women and nature. The design features the ceiba tree, a symbolic representation of the country, integrated into the woman's face, which was inspired by the Fang masks and sculptures of the Central African ethnic group. The Fang people make up approximately 85% of Equatorial Guinea's total population.")
