About the project

I have a Postgraduate Degree in Intangible Cultural Heritage, from ULHT-Universidade Lusófona. I am also a Fashion Designer, with a specialization in Fashion Communication, from IADE, and a degree in Marketing, also from IADE, having also completed the Industrial Modeling course, from CIVEC, and the Artistic Training in Painting, from the National Society of Fine Arts. I am also a member of EXARC.

My work path has been a balance between fine arts, fashion and the study of heritage, doing things as different as painting, sustainable clothing or accepting historical costume commissions. In common: everything is all handmade.

About the approach

Through the sharing and exchange of knowledge and know how, trying to achieve a more balanced form of consumption, always based on manual work, heritages and traditional knowledge in the participation of design.
