Olá! I'm João, and here you will find some of the projects that I had the pleasure of being part of as a Creative Art Director and some of my artwork, which I dedicate many long nights to in front of the computer while listening to music and generally losing track of time.

In the past 15+ years, I’ve had the opportunity to work at top-tier agencies like DAVID, AKQA, Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Ogilvy & Mather, and Leo Burnett, collaborating on projects that have been recognized in major festivals of the industry, such as Cannes Lions, D&AD, One Show, Lia, among others.

Also, Adobe invited me to create the artwork for the Adobe Photoshop Splash Screen 2024, one of the most incredible jobs I had the honor of working on.

In addition, I’m also a coffee addict, and I love taking long walks in the city to discover new neighborhoods and streets. If you’d like to know more about me, just drop me a line, or let's grab a coffee.
