Phase 01

Identity

Brief

I designed the complete Night in Rio visual system, building on the ISAB identity with an illustrated world of tropical landscapes, palms, and birds that carried across every campaign format.

Phase 02

Key art

Brief

The main event poster established the campaign's visual language, bringing together hand-drawn illustration, expressive typography, and essential event information.

Phase 03

Campaign rollout

Brief

I extended the system across ticket-release announcements, sold-out updates, an ISAB × BRASA social, and animated stories, keeping every touchpoint consistent within a three-day turnaround.

Phase 04

Set design + spatial graphics

Brief

On site, I directed the build-out of the environment: draped canopy, hand-painted signage, foliage walls, and color-washed lighting that turned the venue into a Rio street scene.
