Approach

Three habits, and where they show

  1. Start with the person on the other side

    A shop owner’s taste, a commuter in a hurry, a young player learning through a game. The brief usually lives with them.

    Mimos was shaped with the boutique’s owner

  2. Make complex things easy to read

    Hierarchy first, decoration later — whether it’s a station sign or a product dashboard.

  3. Finish it

    Sourcing, production, prototypes. Ideas get better once they have to exist.

How I work

Shown inthe work

Five things I bring, and where to see them. More about me

  1. 01Independent executionLeve Leve went from name to finished swimwear to first sales, with no team behind it.
  2. 02Listening to the clientThe Mimos identity was shaped with the boutique’s owner and follows their taste, not a template.
  3. 03Visual storytellingIn Rock Culture the layout is the narrative: grids that bend, type that pushes back.
  4. 04Complex information, made clearA wayfinding system for a busy Lisbon station, and dashboards and workflows for a tax-advisory platform at Fiscova.
