Website for cable TV channel pack TVCine. I was involved from the first ideas for the pitch to the final design decisions and front-end development.

Website for my father's business. He runs a company dedicated mainly to vine harvesting. I took the project as motivation to learn new areas I wasn't so confortable with and ended up doing everything from logo, design and UX to front-end, illustration, animation and copywriting. The final result is a very modern website that stands from the competitors, running the latest techniques and technologies: responsive web design, mobile first aproach with progressive enhancement in mind, HTML5, CSS3, Sass, HTML5 video, javascript and jQuery.

I was responsible for the UI and UX design of Indie Lisboa Festival's iOS app. I was also responsible for the design and development of the website promoting it, UI, UX, HTML5, CSS3 and responsive web design techniques.

A proposal for the redesign of the famous Portuguese liquor "Licor Beirão", with a responsive web design approach.

While working at Up Digital, I helped with the design and front-end of an app for IKEA Portugal, running inside their existing website. The app helped promote a new sofa free shipping campaign. We worked closely with IKEA, iterating through multiple design solutions and finding an engaging experience that ultimately resulted in a super successful campaign.
