“I see design as a bridge capable of building relationships between brands and their audiences.”
Pleased to meet you, my name is André Santos and I lead a branding and design consultancy, where we raise business perception of value by creating strategy, positioning, name, and identity for outstanding brands.
Through a proprietary methodology called PROPOSE©, we seek to reveal the purpose of each brand, analyze its operating scenario and map the public with whom it will communicate, defining its positioning and translating this information into colors, shapes, images, and graphic elements that express a unique and proprietary visual territory for the brand, building remembrance, creating meaning, adding value to the business and transmitting the security, credibility, and professionalism necessary for the development of the company or product.
In addition, I have an academic degree in Engineering (UNIVALI 2013-2018), which allows me to have a logical and analytical vision focused on business and thus make more assertive and strategic decisions for brands, without leaving aside creativity and aesthetic sensitivity. I believe that this balance is the recipe for building strong, authentic brands that create value for your business.
