We develop projects for brands and institutions at the intersection of visual arts, strategic thinking, and applied technology. Our work spans the creation of identities, experiences, and visual narratives, always seeking to translate concept into form. Throughout our journey, we have established a distinctive practice within contemporary Brazilian design.

We believe in design as a tool for reading and transforming the world: a practice capable of organizing ideas, broadening perspectives, and provoking critical thought in society. For us, every project is an opportunity to shift common perceptions and devise paths toward what is still taking shape. We believe more in the power of questions than in the certainty of answers. We were founded in Rio de Janeiro in 2014, led by founding partners Bernardo Winitskowski and Maria Alice Leal, to develop creative projects across Brazil and around the world.
