ALBUM COVER | Cartografias

Cartografias é o segundo álbum completo do instrumentista e músico Caetano Brasil. A inspiração para as composições vem cada uma de um lugar diferente no mundo e, a cada faixa, características dessas culturas se misturam com a essência do Choro brasileiro, e as referências do artista. Fui convidado para criar a capa e algumas peças de divulgação online para este lançamento. A solução visual tenta espelhar o que foi feito musicalmente no álbum, busca referências das culturas que inspiraram cada música do álbum, como cerejeiras japonesas, moedas ciganas e coqueiros nas praias caribenhas. Tudo isso se mistura com o rosto do artista em uma colagem manual. Alguns elementos isolados foram usados para peças de redes sociais.

LOGOTYPE | Casa da Gelada

Casa da Gelada is a small neighborhood gocery store that specializes in alcooholic beverages delivery, its style comes mostly from what was given by the looks of the house itself. With the brick walls and rough wood doors, we thought it would be well represented by an old distilery look With that in mind I did some researching and sketching to create the custom type logo, and a few pieces we needed to get the business going. I also did the hand painted logos and number on the walls.
