Ateliês do Rio
Editorial
Ateliês do Rio invites readers into ten spaces to observe each artist’s creative process and how each one organizes routine, repetition, memory, imaginative thought, experimentation, inspiration, abysses, and practical needs. In photographs by Vicente de Mello and interviews by João Vergara, the studios of Adriana Varejão, Anna Bella Geiger, Barrão, Beatriz Milhazes, Carlos Vergara, Denilson Baniwa, Marcela Cantuária, Maria Nepomuceno, Maxwell Alexandre, and Waltercio Caldas appear as singular extensions of their practices. We developed the publication’s editorial design from this very understanding: a book that absorbs the symbiosis between artist and space, where tools, chaos, works in progress, walls, tables, and silences reveal that a studio is, above all, a living archive and a way of being in the world. For that very reason, it is always expected to remain in motion—between order and disorder, comings and goings.
Leston investigates the relationships between sound, image, code, and permanence. In dialogue with his research, we developed a visual identity and website that bring the system to the foreground. There is an interval in the gap between error, the blue screen, and code, and it is within this unstable space, between control and failure, that the project comes to life.
Simplexidade helps organizations operate in complex contexts without confusing complexity with complication. We applied this approach to the visual identity through graphics that explore the organic–digital duality and build on the idea of the power of relationships when integrated.
Revista Amarello brings art, design, beauty, philosophy, and architecture closer together. In the digital experience, images, generous margins, and typographic rhythms preserve the publication’s editorial density and create a space for attentive, sensitive reading.
Childhood is not preparation for life; it is life itself unfolding. With this in mind, we worked with Espaço Envolvimento on a careful rebranding process, moving through conceptual and strategic stages and arriving at a visual expression that reflects the school’s new moment.
