Potion Playhouse is a skincare brand born from a deep passion for discovery. It embodies a spirit of curiosity — one that celebrates transformation, encourages exploration, and invites individuals to approach skincare with a sense of play and wonder. At the heart of Potion Playhouse lies a unique blend of scientific knowledge, medical expertise, and creative expression. This fusion of knowledge and imagination sets the tone for an identity that feels both grounded and delightfully unexpected.

Our approach was to reflect the brand’s playful yet purposeful character through thoughtful visual storytelling. The design is anchored in clean, minimalist typography — refined and elegant at first glance, yet balanced with small typographic twists and dynamic graphic details that suggest movement, transformation, and joy. These design elements nod to the meticulous craft behind skincare formulations, capturing the fluid, ever-evolving nature of both skincare and self-expression.The packaging is designed to be tactile and inviting. The soft colour palette of the background, paired with a minimalist approach, is thoughtfully balanced by the subtle use of three neon accents. These vibrant touches distinguish the different product categories, resulting in a final design that feels both elegant and visually striking.

Estellar - a high quality coffee brand that not only delivers exceptional taste but also supports social impact. The name "Estellar," derived from the Spanish verb “eruptar” (to erupt), symbolizes the explosive flavor that comes from the coffee beans cultivated in the volcanic soils of Colombia.

Our branding and packaging reflect this powerful concept with a minimalist yet edgy design. The white coffee bags are housed in a short card box, with colors selected to represent each coffee variety. Soft pastel hues are used throughout the packaging, alongside clever typography arragements, creating an unique and catchy look that highlights the character of each coffee.

Estellar is about building bridges — connecting consumers with the farmers who cultivate the beans. Through thoughtful design, we’ve created a brand that represents not only great coffee but a meaningful connection and commitment to social good. Estellar isn’t just a coffee experience; it’s a journey from the farm to your cup, with every sip supporting a greater cause. — rejected project —

The Almeida Garrett Reserva and Grande Reserva are the two premium wines in the Almeida Garrett Wines range. After an extensive research into the author’s oldest works in the library that bears his name, we defined two distinct yet intersecting paths in the development of these two labels. For the Grande Reserva, we recreated an old cover from one of his works, represented in debossing and foil, on heavyweight paper with a rich, tactile texture, where we used the key details of the wine to replace the elements of the original cover. For the Reserva, and given that we discovered valuable lost handwritten excerpts within his work, we decided to design a double-layer label that creates transparency between the selected papers, once again blending the classic with a minimalist yet bold approach.

In our rebranding endeavor for a collection of 7 sparkling wines lacking cohesion beyond a shared brand symbol, our goal was clear: transform it into a cherished love brand, unique and memorable. Through meticulous exploration of details, we delved into visual poetry. This method, known for its ability to engage the reader at a sensorial level, allowed us to merge typography with words, crafting abstract forms that spoke to the essence of each wine.

Seven distinct patterns emerged, each reflecting the specifications of its respective bottle and brand. Vibrant geometric shapes, adorned with vibrant colors, complemented our typographic scheme, ensuring individuality while maintaining brand coherence. To heighten the sensory experience, these shapes were delicately debossed with coloured matte foil upon rough paper. [rejected project]
