Passionate about typography and geometric so many of my works have a great relationship between these two universes graphics. I enjoy working with colors and forms. I have so much fun working.

My favorite medium is the digital interface. All my works are designed in digital mode. I´m too bad with my hands in a manual way :P

4. What is your artistic process like?

I spend a lot of time looking at beautiful thing, I like to investigate before start a new project. I need to know or search the same subject that I want to work on it, because we all consume the same things, blogs, sites, inspirations, so I don´t want to make a similar design that someone else. I spend a quite a lot of time investigating, when I have clear what I want, It awesome.

5. Who and/or what inspires your work?

I find much inspiration in dreams, spaces, vanguards design, travels, music and love.

I like where I work and gives me time to do my personal work as my clothing brand (neuprouns.com) and to continue designing my fonts.

Living in a big house away from the city with my cats, working freelance on projects that i like, and continue with my brand.
