strategic design with a focus on sustainability

Atelier Nunes e Pã develops communication strategies in order to create unique visual experiences that build and consolidate the identity of each client. 
We work with creative and technical partnerships centralizing project management in order to enhance capabilities and guarantee the success of the proposed solutions.



The focus on sustainability is part of this matrix, being an integral part of the work process from the beginning.
With a national and international portfolio, also nationally and internationally recognised through awards and publications.

approach

1. ”know your client”:

immersion in client culture;
It is a phase of research and data acquisition to support the elaboration of the strategy and the singularity of the speech

2. goals:

Analysis and definition of strategy;

The problem statement and expectations are aligned and worked on together with the client.

3. definition of project and proposal:

Conceptualisation of the project and design of proposals;
Definition and direction of the global project, the different areas of work involved and the expectations for both project and client.

4. execution:

Management of production and implementation of the project in the various media involved (printing, construction, digital and web);

Dynamic management of multidisciplinary teams inside and outside the studio.

5. support & consultancy:

Follow up e feedback;

Global management and monitoring allow for dynamic collaboration with the client to maximize the project's impact and overall value for both parties.

think globally,
work passionately,
create value.

20 years ago, in 2004, still in creative fervor following 'Porto European Capital of Culture', Atelier João Nunes and Pã Design officially signed a merger that has always felt latent in partnerships and creative encounters. 20 years counting down to May 7, 2024 in a journey that continues to add up. A story rich in experiences, people and creation; in perseverance, design and redesign. Each project is an invitation to look at the world and people, how to communicate and how they intersect with our work.
