    uniE621 Brand Communication — Volvo Construction Equipment
    The Client Volvo Construction Equipment is one of the world's leading manufacturers of construction machinery, with production facilities across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. This project was developed for their Brazilian manufacturing plant in Pederneiras, São Paulo — one of Volvo CE's largest facilities outside of Sweden. The Scope A long-term brand communication partnership delivering internal and external materials within Volvo's strict global brand standards. Work included annual event identity systems (Supplier Day), internal communication campaigns, branded credentials, print collateral, and corporate event materials — consistently executed over multiple years. The Challenge Designing within a Fortune 500 global brand system is a discipline of its own. Every piece had to honor Volvo's international visual standards while serving the specific communication needs of a large industrial workforce. No room for creative improvisation — only precision, consistency, and craft. What This Project Demonstrates The ability to operate at enterprise scale inside one of the world's most recognized industrial brands — a different skill set from building a brand from scratch, and equally valuable to clients who need a designer that understands brand systems from the inside out. Deliverables: Event identity systems · Internal communication campaigns · Print collateral · Corporate branded materials https://www.behance.net/gallery/69308465/Volvo-Construction-Equipment
    uniE621 Logo & Brand Identity — Aloe Rentals (Car Rental · Brisbane, Australia)
    The Challenge Aloe Rentals is a family-owned car rental business based in Brisbane, Australia, built to offer an affordable alternative in a market dominated by overpriced options. The brand needed to feel approachable, fresh, and trustworthy — communicating reliability and flexibility without looking like just another generic rental company. The creative challenge: bridge the unexpected pairing of aloe vera's organic freshness with the automotive rental category, while landing concepts like straightforwardness, friendliness, and affordability in a single coherent visual identity. The Solution I developed a logo and identity system that transforms the aloe plant into a distinctive, ownable mark — giving the brand a personality that immediately stands apart from competitors. The visual language balances organic warmth with clean, functional design, making the brand feel simultaneously inviting and dependable. The result is a system that works across vehicle signage, digital platforms, and printed materials without losing its character at any scale. The Result A brand identity with a clear, memorable concept that gives a family business the visual confidence to compete in a crowded rental market — and the flexibility to grow with it. Deliverables: Logo system · Color palette · Typography · Brand guidelines https://www.behance.net/gallery/129179633/Aloe-Rentals
    uniE621 Logo & Brand Identity — Azimuth Capital (Investment Holding · Boston, USA)
    The Challenge Azimuth Capital is a Boston-based investment holding specializing in acquiring high-potential businesses and creating investment opportunities for foreign clients looking to enter the American market — whether for business expansion or planned retirement. The brand needed to communicate precision, strategic vision, and international sophistication. Their target audience: high-net-worth individuals and foreign investors who demand confidence and credibility at first glance. The Solution I developed a logo system built around the concept of direction and navigation — referencing the azimuth as a precise measurement tool, a metaphor for strategic investment clarity. The identity uses a disciplined typographic system paired with a geometric mark that conveys both structure and forward movement. The color palette was chosen to position Azimuth in the premium tier of the financial sector — timeless, authoritative, and internationally legible across both digital and print applications. The Result A brand identity that gives Azimuth Capital the visual authority to compete with established US financial firms while clearly signaling its international, cross-border positioning.

    uniE621 Logo & Brand Identity — Toledo Advogados Associados (Law Firm)
    The Challenge Toledo Advogados Associados is a successful law firm based in São Paulo, Brazil, with offices in Houston, Washington D.C., and Panama City. Specializing in immigration law, international investments, and cross-border business, the firm needed a visual identity that conveyed authority, sophistication, and international credibility — appealing to both Brazilian and North American clients. The Solution I developed a complete logo system grounded in classic legal tradition while bringing a contemporary and clean aesthetic. The identity uses a refined typographic logotype paired with a structured visual mark, supported by a restrained color palette that communicates trust and professionalism. Every element was designed to work seamlessly across digital platforms, printed materials, and formal legal documents. The Result A brand identity that positions Toledo as a premium, internationally active law firm — confident enough to compete in the US market while maintaining its Brazilian roots.
