    Tea by Amae
    This project focused on designing the packaging and identity for a collection of three herbal teas, created to accompany the natural rhythm of the day: morning, afternoon, and night. Developed for the brand Amae, each blend combines functional ingredients with emotional meaning. The teas are personified through feminine names and characters that represent energy, balance, and rest: • Elior (morning) – lemon and ginger. • Mira (afternoon) – green tea and mint. • Selene (night) – chamomile and lavender. The design reflects softness, ritual, and a poetic connection between time, nature, and well-being. Illustration played a central role in the process, giving each blend a distinct personality and visual voice.…
    TOQUE - Accessible magazine
    This project aims to make graphic design accessible to everyone, especially people with visual impairments. It consists of a bimonthly magazine that features 10 classic logos, adapted through embossed printing, braille transcription, and the use of color, creating an inclusive sensory experience. Each edition is built around three core pillars: Tactile accessibility, through embossing. Clear visual communication, with legible typefaces and adapted hierarchies. Aesthetic inclusion, integrating both visual and tactile elements for a diverse audience. This is a non-profit cultural and social project, whose purpose is to promote accessibility and social awareness within the field of graphic design. The project’s visual identity reflects its values: inclusive, educational, and cultural. Its key components include: The bimonthly magazine as the central element; Complementary communication materials such as a website, outdoor posters, social media, and a promotional video. This strategic approach seeks to position the initiative as a benchmark in accessible design, contributing to a more inclusive visual culture. Keywords: accessibility, braille, graphic design, inclusion, embossing, sustainability, visual culture, visual impairment.…
    Wine: Adega Herdade Cortes de Baixo
    This project involved the creation of a winery and three wine bottles. The names Cortes de Branco, Cortes de Tinto, and Cortes de Talha were inspired by Herdade das Cortes de Baixo, a winery located in Vidigueira, Alentejo, Portugal. Playing with the word "Cortes" (cuts), an illustration was created for each wine bottle, representing various cuts, each with colors that evoke the flavors and sensations expressed by the respective wine. Each bottle’s design uses specific colors to reflect the unique characteristics of the wine it represents. Vidigueira is a historic wine region, renowned for its fresh, aromatic white wines and the production of talha wine, an ancient Roman winemaking tradition that remains alive today. With its Mediterranean climate and fertile soils, it is an ideal territory for viticulture. Herdade das Cortes de Baixo combines the region’s winemaking heritage with modern and sustainable techniques, producing wines that reflect the authenticity and richness of Alentejo.…
    Cata la Lata
    This project involved creating a packaging design for three traditional seafood products: mussels in escabeche, sardines in olive oil, and light tuna in olive oil. The work was developed for the Cata la Lata competition, organized by ANFACO-CECOPESCA with the support of Fundación Banco Sabadell. The aim of the competition was to design attractive and original packaging for the cans used in a year-long campaign to promote high-quality Spanish seafood products. As a creative concept, I chose to pay tribute to the pescantinas — women who historically played a key role in Galician fishing ports by supporting fishermen and actively contributing to the maritime economy. Through this design, I aimed to reflect their strength, visual identity, and deep connection to the sea, building a narrative that celebrates both the product and the cultural legacy of fishing. designer ilustracion graphicdesigner…
