Partner and Design Director at FAAADE
Born in Rio de Janeiro, where he began his career as a graphic designer in 2001. His sources of inspiration include the exuberant nature that surrounded him, the influence of designers such as Emil Ruder, Josef Müller-Brockmann, Saul Bass, and the experimental music of the German electronic band Kraftwerk. A combination that has led him to develop his work through innovative processes and approaches that bridge technology and craft.
He holds a Master’s degree in User Experience Design from Elisava. In 2023, he co-founded the branding and design studio faaade® with Victor Leão — the name referencing a hexadecimal value representing a shade of pink. Based in Madrid, the studio offers services including branding, brand strategy, graphic design, digital products, editorial design, motion design, digital content, and type design.
They collaborate with a network of graphic artists, strategists, developers, musicians, and illustrators working remotely from around the world, bringing expertise tailored to the needs and challenges of each project.
Part of his work has been recognized by leading industry awards such as the Type Directors Club, Art Directors Club, The One Club, Clio Awards, and Awwwards, as well as featured in international publications including Communication Arts and PAGE — Das Magazin der Kreativbranche. Most recently, he was ranked among the top 5 European creatives at the 102nd ADC Awards and served as a jury member in 2024 in the Typography category.
