Alicoop's 25th Anniversary
Alicoop is the major supermarket owner and distributor in the Algarve region (Portugal's southern province) and by the time they completed 25 years, they wanted to show it 'in grand'.
So, a logo was then created and applied to trucks, flags, polos, hats, etc.
Logo for Quinta Agencia
Quinta Agência (Fifth Agency) works for Citibank and manages its credit cards in some areas of Portugal.
Pipo, the dog!!!!
I've done this label to decorate a box filled up with some 'dog snacks' which was then offered to Pipo, a beautiful Golden Retriever. Teka owns him. She's is a 'kitty'.
Mao Tse Tony_The lost brother of Mao
From time to time, some people come up with amazing and unbelievable stories about social and political personalities, spreading doubt and confusion on the established version of History. Here is one:_During the Cultural Revolution, Mr. Mao, obsessed by the idea of getting the power for himself and by the idea of developing a touristic resort up in the middle of Gobi Desert, banishes his own twin brother to the northern province. AMAZING!! A TWIN BROTHER!!! I guess you've heard of this!
No one ever saw a picture of this 'lost twin brother' until now. Lost among other misterious disappearances stories and found by the monks of an ancient buddhist order, here is the picture of Mao Tse Tony, the late and younger brother of Mr. Mao.
Another intriguing artifact found with this picture was a bank note that depicts the figure of Mao Tse Tony and the name of a central bank which lead us to believe that Mao Tse Tony tried to create an independent state in the sands of Gobi Desert. But this, is a secret that he took with him to the grave and it is lost for now. Who knows what the future could bring us.
Can you believe that?
KD Child Safety Project
A friend of mine, who now lives and works in Germany as car safety engineer, asked asked me to develop a brand for a product related to child safety.
KD (in brazilian portuguese 'ka-de'. The 'de' like in the french word 'degradé') phonetically, for a brazilian, it sounds as a question 'Where is it?'
KD is Kids Device. Something that the kid would ask for before getting into the car.
There's still a long way to go. These sort of things take a long time to develop, test and implement. Let us 'sit' and wait!!!
Jewelery designer brand
Lilipop is a brand created by a jewel designer back in 2003. She wanted a logo that illustrated the uncompromised style of hers. The name immediately remembered us of 'lollipop' candies. From here the application evolved into the stationary and others pieces that were done by a friend of mine, art director Vasco Teixeira.
Audi Airport Service
Audi reseller wanted an welcome desk at Lisbon's airport. The logo created to identify the service is based on the pilot's wings 'crowned' by the Audi rings.
Illustration Forum Algarve
Illustration made for a poster used on a campaign to prevent car accidents, which is a matter of serious discussions here. The number of people who die in the portuguese highways is simply unbearable! The plate was made on Cinema 4D then rendered against highway pavement background.
My son's 7th birthday invitation
In Brazil, when a bunch of kids are playing toghether we say 'Eles estão pintando o sete!' (literally 'They are painting the seven!') which means they are 'preparing something...naughty!
So, at the 7th birthday of my son Igor, we decided let them toghether and 'paint the seven'!
Peugeot Visa Card
The Peugeot Visa card is a reward card supposed to be available to all Peugeot customers. In the end the project didn't come out.
_Reward what??? Fidelity for the brand...post-sales what?? Here is your car and hasta la vista, baby! Oh, don't forget your candy! Why was he so angry about it?
Ah, the card's signature 'Peugeot Visa. Fala por si' means two things in portuguese: the card speaks for itself and also for you.
Poster 'Reading for blind people'
A dear friend of mine decided to help and spread the idea of reading for blind people at her college last year. The headline, making use of dialogue baloons, says: 'You read. I hear. We see.'
She wanted to open the eyes of those who see to the blind people reality: Some literary masterpieces may never 'be seen'. So the idea was to give voice to books not translated into Braille, making them 'see new light' in the blind people's mind.
Book and logotypes for Pousadas de Portugal
The book above shows some of the most beautiful Pousadas which are also historical monuments of Portugal. The logos were created for two of the Pousadas.
TALK! Magazine, AM Mall Management
AM Mall Management is present all over Europe. In Portugal they wanted to create a newsletter to inform and promote their services, but also to serve as a sort of 'social affaire' by publishing interviews with people from different areas and backgrounds.
As the name suggests, we wanted people to TALK! about themselves, about their careers and also about serious issues like security on the malls, environment issues, profits...anything!
Hyundai H24 Service
The Huyndai reseller in Portugal wanted to promote its post-sales service and our task was to create a name, a logo and a customer card.

Poster for Lisbon's Metropolitan transports
Every year, the Metro (Underground) and Carris (bus service) suffered some important money losses due to the 'unwanted guests'. To warn and prevent them from using the transport system, we decided to make use of a current portuguese expression to designate a 'wise guy': Chico-esperto!
The message states:_We have an eye on you, wise guy! You don't pay the ticket, then you'll pay the fine. There's no way to go!
Also a flyer was produced. The message used was:_'There is no 'place' for wise guys here!'
Somewhere over the rainbow. 1991
High above, over the clouds, in the way to British Isles with 'mia morena bellissima'!

Calligraphy_Experiences
I just love working with Adobe Illustrator calligraphy tool. Here are some experiences.
Typographic Experiences
I love languages. When I was a kid, I even went to japanese classes due to my passion to Yassue, a beautiful japanese girl, which was my neighbour. Sorry! this was just an apart...then came the arabic language, thanks to my schools mates 'min Lubnan' Ali and Mohammed Abdouni, (don't worry, i didn't fall in love this time), which I have learned to use the alphabet though my spoken skills are not so good and guess what...hebrew! I like to play with my friends saying that one of these days I am moving to the Negev Desert, start working in a kibbutz or working with solar energy. Anyway, this was supposed to be about typography!!!!
Here it goes. Some experiences. I hope someone, better than me can tell whether it looks good enough to be read and understood. Shalom chaverim, shalom chaverot!!!
Lisbon's Zoo, 2006
Logo created to promote a new compound at Lisbon's Zoo: The Temple of the Primates. The logo was then applied to a variety of media. The campaign is yet to be decided next March.
