Brahma | Branded Shadows

We put up more than a hundred signs around Asunción. So when the sun came out, so did we, branding shadows everywhere. A refreshing reminder that the best way to beat the heat is with an ice-cold Brahma.

Corona | Infinite Sunset

Right now, as you read this, a beautiful sunset is happening somewhere in the world. The perfect reason to open a Corona Cero and celebrate life. This is the idea behind Infinite Sunset: over 250 cameras across 55 countries connected to a system that tracks and livestreams sunsets, one after the other, on billboards all over Brazil.

D&AD | The D&AD Shift Pencil

For the first time ever, D&AD reimagined its icon and created the D&AD Shift Pencil. A symbol to represent the program that helps self-taught talent enter the creative industry.

Hand-sharpened. Irregular tips. Asymmetrical edges. A 100% handmade work mirroring the non-traditional paths these talents have taken.

Volvo | Rayssa Imagines

Beyond the safety you expect from Volvo, the new EX30 Ultra Twin packs an extra punch of performance.

To launch it, we brought in someone who knows a thing or two about it: skateboarder Rayssa Leal. The only thing missing was a driver’s license, so she had to imagine her first ride instead.



Zé Delivery | Undercover Goals

During the World Cup, FIFA's playbook for non-sponsors is very clear: 
no logos, no symbols, no photos, nothing. 

So, to get in the game, Zé Delivery recreated Brazil’s most iconic goals using something FIFA didn't mention: ✕, and →.

Using minimal shapes, clever design, and cultural memory, our sacoolers delivered more than cold drinks in 15 minutes. They delivered the nostalgia of Brazil’s greatest football moments, without ever saying a word.




Case Study Under 30' | Personal Project

Ad boards are fine. But they're static, musicless and kinda lifeless. Here's how you can create case studies in less than 30 minutes using Keynote. A much better way to present ideas to your Creative Directors and clients. No rocket science and no sleepless nights.



Gymshark Sweat Pass

Gymshark wanted to connect with younger generations. So we teamed up with Fortnite to create a unique battle pass. But with a twist: the challenges are real workouts to be completed on The Gymshark Training App.

Fanta | Never Out of Style

Harry Styles has a bunch of songs about fruit and no one knows where this obsession comes from. And, by chance or not, Fanta has a flavor for each of them. To solve the mystery, we showed that he's been singing about Fanta this whole time.

OMO, Unilever | A Few Washes Away

Come up with words that dare the world to dream. That was the challenge of the D&AD New Blood OMO brief. So we showed that we are just a few washing cycles away from the things we want the most.

Nike Pixo | Type Family

Pixo has been part of São Paulo's urban landscape for many years, as well as Nike's visual universe. But in the campaigns, it always appeared in a supporting role. Until now. We brought the essence of the streets to the forefront of popular culture's most relevant brand through fonts, letters and words.
