Projects
Over the years, we have supported many clients and managed education, research, strategy and design projects in varied creative fields.
A common denominator across all of our projects, is our passion to create value through deep dedication to art, creativity, sustainability and responsible production.

Saber Fazer
Editorial design and visual identity for our sibling project. Naturally, our intervention and connection to Saber Fazer is deeper than simple graphic design. However, with so many materials produced throughout the year, this is probably the most visible element of this relationship.
MANNA Food & Yoga
Strategy and graphic design for a restaurant in Porto serving specialty coffee, natural wines and vegetarian and vegan food. MANNA's strategic planning was done at a time of optimism amidst a tourism boom. Still, the stars tried to put everything we did to the test: the restaurant opened just two months before the beginning of the Pandemic. Three years later, it's still going strong.
