UX/UI Design
Case: Improving Pinterest
The prompt for this exercise was to improve a specific Task Flow for an excisting and well positioned app. I chose the task: “Go to your profile” inside the app Pinterest, as I figured it has an extra step that confused users. To show you what I did I’ll place video comparisons between how the app worked before, and my improvement proposal.

Case: Task-Time
This was an exercise meant to train my abilities, completing from start to end a product design project. I decided to play with the idea of an app that allows you to connect a schedule with the configuration to restring time on social media apps, so once you finish your tasks on social media, the app will scourge you to stop using your phone. This app is meant for uses who have to log online for work duties, while, at the same time, are looking for a digital detox.



Graphic Design Projects
Artwork for a Single

Artwork created under commission for the cover of independent artist Jos D Marty's single "Negro" (2024)
It consists of four handmade collages merged together, influenced by the artist's many faces and projects.
The requirements for the composition were:
1. Main colors green, red and black
2. A reference to the artist's cat
3. Sunglasses

Branding. English Academy
The following pieces were created under commission for an English academy. The project to release the branding, along with the launch of the courses, was paused due to unforeseen circumstances. All the designs were in the final stage of approval.
Social Media Posts Samples

Still images were meant to be Instagram posts, while the video shows different stories.
The content on the images was already established by the school, and it was a remake with a consistent visual brand, which was missing from the original posts.

Visual Brand for Social Media




Fonts for Michulada
Inspired by the traditional rim of certain drinks, I "decorated" the letters for this bar's identity. The owner is not interested in a concrete identity, for their own passion project, but it was a fun project to present.

I suggested the use of the "M" as a first logo for the independent business.

The proposed used of my chosen font combination: my variant on Acid bold, and Lato as a secondary typeface.
