Took up this project a few weeks ago. The brief was simple, design an identity that doesn't need to scream luxury, but speaks for itself. A private collection of 17 residences.
The logomark draws inspiration from Spanish architectural heritage, specifically the Draped Arch, one of the most distinct and revered forms in Spanish design. Chosen not only for its visual elegance, but for what it symbolises: a sacred threshold. A portal marking the transition into something new. The creation of a home. A new standard of living.
The arch was then studied alongside the architecture of the residence itself, drawing from shared elements of form and proportion. Spanish architectural language meeting the building's own design, producing a mark that feels both rooted and original.
The result is an icon that does not need to announce itself. It simply speaks, quietly, confidently, and with purpose.
Deriving the arch from the actual building instead of a generic architectural reference is what makes this feel earned rather than decorative. The laser cut piece in the last shot is a great way to prove the mark works in three dimensions too.
Brand Identity & Packaging Design
A complete visual identity and packaging concept for Cerveja do Bolo, including branded packaging, merchandise, and outdoor signage. I developed the visual direction and applied the brand consistently across multiple touchpoints to create a cohesive and recognizable identity.
Rather than following the typical loud adventure aesthetic, we kept the system clean, modern, and confident, reflecting XNOMAD's idea of quiet luxury and freedom.
The identity was built around a distinctive X, supported by a minimal wordmark, bold blue palette, typography, graphic patterns, and applications across digital and physical touchpoints.
Wake Up Anywhere.
One of those projects where simplicity did most of the talking.
