Maisr Arquitectos its an architecture studio. The studio defends three values for the practice of architecture. Reconstruction, rehabilitate and reconversion. The dashes/bars symbolize the three values of the studio. The application of the identity is inspired by these ideals. The complementary graphics (dashes/bars) spreads through the space available in each material and is related to the content present in them, thus being a mirror of the practice of the studio that guide its clients to rehabilitate the space of their homes.

In this project I was asked to do the poster for the exhibition of a photographic artist. In the photographic project our houses are equated as bunkers. The pandemic has raised the security felt at home to very high levels, perhaps comparable to when you are inside a bunker. The identity for the project was designed to convey this new experience that we are all experiencing in confinement and isolation. The concrete blocks symbolize the compartments that are our homes and the roughness of the material symbolize the difficult times we are experiencing. In each material where the identity appears, its application has certain differences, just as each person has adjusted differently to living in this new reality.

Filipa Miguel Ferreira is an architect with a minimalist style. The identity of her is a mirror of her style. The initial letters of her name were deconstructed until only some elements were left. The website was designed for her projects to be viewed in sequence, with the help of a caption it is possible to distinguish the different projects. Such as the identity, the website has a minimalist atmosphere with the aim of highlighting the photographs of the architect’s works.

Having regard to the concept of “Hybrid Novel” by Alberto Hernandez, we were asked to choose a book and proceed to its reinterpretation. My choice was “A Máquina de Joseph Walser” by Gonçalo M. Tavares, the story in the book is centered on the empathy between a man named Walser and his machine. Walser is a man who lives almost like a machine in a world of machines that dominate the human specie. Throughout the book is increasingly noticeable the indifference and the neutrality that Walser has with the world around him, the choice of black and white is exactly to highlight these attitude of him with the aid of photographs of my own.
