JOÃO FRANCISCO TAVARES
João is a designer originally from a small fishing village in Portugal right on the water. Pulled by that openness, pushed by time in cities like New York, he brings a different perspective to design, influenced by street culture.
Focused on brand design with an emphasis on type composition and logo design, working across branding, packaging, and editorial. Always curious about new tools and exploring new paths.
Based between Lisbon and New York.
