FARO OSTERIA just got featured on Contra! ✨ Really happy to see this one selected by the Contra team. I loved building the world around it, from the red pasta boxes and blue caps to the menu and street campaign. Thank you, Contra, and everyone who has taken a look and supported the work.

Cover image for FARO OSTERIA — Italian comfort.
FARO OSTERIA — Italian comfort. Street energy. A brand and takeaway concept built around the entire meal: bold packaging, a clear digital menu and a street presence that carries the same identity from counter to customer. The packaging study uses one carrier with separate pasta, bread and cheese modules. The visual system extends through a $5–$7 pasta menu, uniforms, bags and editorial campaign imagery. Creative Direction — Mauricio Pontual. Concept study. Packaging modelled in Blender; campaign imagery developed with AI-assisted tools and art direction.

SIX PIECES. ONE VISION. A conceptual fashion campaign by MP House. I built a six-piece collection around mustard, sage, coral and pale blue, then explored how those pieces could work together across different looks. The same palette connects the clothing, casting, styling and outdoor setting. The campaign moves between group compositions, individual portraits and a 30-second fashion film. Architecture gives the images their structure; colour and fabric bring the movement. My role: creative direction, collection concept, styling direction and AI-assisted image and film development. Created with Weave, Nano Banana, Midjourney and Seedance 2.5. Independent concept by Mauricio Pontual / MP House Studio.
