02 / ABOUT ME
One hand on paper.
The other in the future.
I’m Tiago. A designer and developer shaped by training, practice, and a curious nature.
My background in Industrial Design grew into brand identity, graphic and editorial design, and illustration. Working on the web added another dimension: turning visual ideas into interfaces and experiences people can use.
For over 15 years, I’ve worked at Ydeal, my current employer, bringing together graphic design, UI, visual identity, and frontend and backend development across a wide range of projects.
Today, I bring that visual sensibility to development and AI exploration. I enjoy connecting the whole process: asking the right questions, developing a visual language, designing the interface and building the final experience.
03 / A BROAD PRACTICE. A PERSONAL POINT OF VIEW.
Creative tools.
Human intention.
From paper and print to interfaces, code and AI, I work across disciplines to turn ideas into considered visual and digital experiences. AI is part of that practice: a tool for exploration, guided by design judgement and attention to detail.
UI & digital experiences
Interfaces that connect visual character, clear structure and everyday use.
Frontend & backend development
Bringing interfaces to life and connecting the systems behind the experience.
Illustration & AI exploration
Hand-drawn expression, image-making and new creative possibilities with AI.
04 / YOUR IDEA COULD BE NEXT
Let’s make
something with character.
A brand identity, a digital experience,
or an idea still taking shape on paper.
