Logo for a middle eastern fusion restaurant in Barcelona. The focus was on reflecting the connection to middle eastern cuisine as well as to a modern western approach to cooking.
I developped a logo system that also translated into patterns that could be varied and adapted for different purposes.

Brand identity & wine range system — long-term collaboration

Following the foundation of the brand, I have been responsible for the long-term development and expansion of the visual system across multiple wine ranges, from Cava to mid- and high-end labels.

My role focused on evolving the identity into a flexible, production-ready system capable of supporting different price tiers while maintaining consistency, hierarchy, and brand recognition over time.

Editorial illustration & visual storytelling
Long-term collaboration

Long-term collaboration with a Swiss family-oriented
magazine, delivering editorial illustration and visual
concepts across a wide range of topics.

Worked from short editorial briefs to develop clear,
engaging visual narratives for diverse subjects, including science, culture, social issues, and light-hearted features.

The work required adaptability of tone and style while
maintaining consistency, clarity, and suitability for a broad readership.
