MAR- BRAGAPARQUE
2026
Design and production of acrylic water-replication pieces for the art installation at Bragaparque shopping center, Summer 2026.


Ecosistema Alimentar
2026

Ecosistema Alimentar  is a collection of altered plates, combined with connecting pieces, that functions as a kind of mealtime game or puzzle.
It explores the need to depend on another person—and their presence at the table—to eat and enjoy oneself in a setting as common and recurring as dinner or lunch.






HORMIGAS/FORMIGAS/ANTS
2025-2026
HORMIGAS/FORMIGAS/ANTS is a collection of three books featuring observation and memory games that prompt players to reflect on their surroundings and interactions.

The visual design draws inspiration from ants: their social structure mirrors human society in its most primitive form. Through organised labour, population size, and movement, the human world is drawn into a direct comparison with an anthill.




Leeme las manos, depois o pensamento.
2026
Leeme las manos, depois o pensamento.This project consists of a set of cards featuring forms and words, designed for players to attempt to read each other's minds while overcoming sensory barriers that may or may not interfere with the process, all while interacting with the proposed accessories.

The gameplay progresses in stages: first, trying to guess the colour; next, the shapes; and finally, more complex structures such as language, in this case, words
.






Universo V universo OuV
2025
Universo V universo OuV is an interactive wall that reacts to sound—each word spoken sets a digital galaxy in motion. This poetic installation symbolises the impact of dialogue on the universe, inviting people to speak, connect, and explore the mysteries of the cosmos in constant movement.

Part of an ongoing collection of interactive walls, this piece is still evolving, just like the conversations it inspires.



Colher/Cuchara/Spoon
2024
A Spoon for Seven
This object explores the poetic and symbolic meaning of the spoon—an everyday item often associated with comfort, care, and nourishment. Unlike the fork or knife, the spoon is soft, maternal, and non-aggressive.
Inspired by personal memories and ancestral warmth, A Spoon for Seven invites reflection on collective nourishment: one person, by feeding themselves, inevitably feeds others. Constructed from seven stainless steel spoons, the piece becomes a metaphor for connection, generosity, and the invisible gestures of care that bind us.





Escoba/Cepillo/Toothbrush2024 The Toothbrush
This object is a playful exploration of intimacy and vulnerability in the most ordinary of spaces—the bathroom. A toothbrush designed for two invites us to reflect on shared routines, closeness, and the absurdly tender moments of everyday life.

Between the strange and the affectionate, this project blurs the line between personal space and shared intimacy, turning a private ritual into a humorous and poetic gesture.






Papagaio/Cometa/Kite 2025


One Kite for  three
In Colombia, kites fill the August sky—colours invade the blue, transforming it into a multicoloured dance. Parks overflow with people who love each other, sharing a single kite: one for two, one for three.

Families enter a delicate choreography, where the flight of the kite depends not only on teamwork but also on the will of the wind—a force that may or may not cooperate.

Kites are ancient. They carry memory, play, and a shared rhythm between people, string, and sky.





Siruma
2024
Siruma means both “sky” and “stars” in Wayuunaiki, the language spoken by the Wayuu communities in northern Colombia.

This project is inspired by La Guajira and the poetic act of looking up—sitting low, in a posture of comfort and quiet contemplation. Siruma is an invitation to reconnect with the sky, to observe, to slow down, and to experience a moment of stillness that feels almost idyllic.






Blown Glass Collection: Palabras indelebles.
2024
Palabras indelebles is a collection of blown glass objects that explore the dialogue between the fluid, organic nature of molten glass and the rigid geometry of wire.
 This series investigates the tension and harmony born from contrasting materials; it is also a relationship between the line (the wire) and the content (the molten glass)




Visual Identity  Praça á mesa.
2024
Designed for the "Praça à Mesa" community event celebrating Caldas da Rainha's Praça da Fruta market, this visual identity captures the market's vibrant energy, colour, and diversity using lively illustrations and custom, handcrafted typography.

Adapted for a range of digital and physical media—from street posters to social media posts and stories—the project aimed to build a bold, accessible, and community-driven visual communication.




Fundações 2025
Graphic design and art direction for Fundações, the student design magazine of the Instituto Politécnico de Leiria. This project involved developing the visual identity, layout, and editorial concept, aiming to reflect the creative energy and diversity of emerging designers within the academic community.
