This premium soft serve and refreshments spot draws inspiration from the Mediterranean, not just in its ingredients but in its values. It’s about more than just grabbing a quick bite—it’s about savouring each moment, allowing life to slow down just enough to remind you of the beauty in the process.
The brand’s visual identity relects their ethos: clean and minimal with just the right amount of rustic charm. The color palette draws from the soft, sun-kissed tones of Mallorca’s beaches and countryside.
Whether it’s the refreshing soft serve or the carefully curated décor, the shop’s environment is designed to be organised yet warm, efficient yet sentimental. Every light, every scent, every sound is there to evoke a subtle, aesthetic fulfilment.")

I really enjoyed working on the dancing elephant :) There were several, quick sketches of elephants done and many feedbacks received, before the right version has been achieved well.
The visual style of this brand is transitional that combines modern and traditional, textured elements. Excited to be wrapping up the labels!")

The image that the client wanted to use for the logo was a scarab Beatle. There are several concepts of scarab involved in this branding, from a heavly detailed, intricate illustration to a single, modern icon (water mark) of scarab made up of GG letters.
The goal of this design, was to create something that not only stand out in the fashion but would but stand alone, make its own statement and tell a wonderful story.")

Yamba Caparica is a holistic boutique beach restaurant & bar/club located in Caparica, 20minutes away from Lisbon, Portugal. The place will have an African influenced decoration and vibe, without falling into obvious clichés. Yamba follows the aesthetics and philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, which embraces beauty as imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. I truly enjoyed a lot the whole creating process and I hope that the result speaks for itself :)")
