Royal Studio

We love paper so much we make it develop feelings! Mental. It is a stone-cold-restless nerve with attitude. The Royal is good. Good Royal.

Kicking off the nice talk: the Royal has deep a conceptual and and strategical approach to the design wonders. Considering an emotional approach to the graphic development, the notions of style, trends and authorship are never masters nor dictators to the projects at hands, even considering how astonishingly visual the final outcome might be. The Royal aims for the in-depth understanding of poetry and his hands are eager to allow ideas to their full potential in terms of communication with the public, making each piece crucial to the client’s positioning.

Notes on duality: every direction points north, and emotional states stumble on the verge of too much analysis. Designing Mansionair’s LP3 and continuous stream of singles and visualizers as a flux state is an exercise of allowing space between zooming in and acknowledging emotional transit.

Duality is a suggestion and an achievement, working both as contemplation and suggestion. To do so we’ve built storytelling glimpses that treat elements that connect to the public as textures of tactile memories. As we start this journey we acknowledge the world can’t be created twice, and memory is an additive experience.

Textural in feel and cinematic in tone, focusing on moments in between emotions and relationships; zooming in, staying and deviating, suspended and afloat, in flux and between transit, photographic suspension, balance and friction, unity and connection.
 A story between zooming in, being at, moving between and feeling still while in flux.

MXGPU’ing along 2026. A full new stream of beauty if unfolding.
Single 4 is The Hush and it is out now.

Thank you MXGPU for the spark! It is beautiful to be a part of the family.
And thank you Ana Viotti for the thrill of microscopic blasts of surprise and continuous enthusiasm!

In flux with MXGPU line of singles, we are continuing the visual language, expanding from two dimensional behaviours towards depth, volume, and a sense of scaling in and scaling out, in line with the zigzag zoom emotional thrill of the dance floor.

Pushing the limits of the visual system and staying in line with the universe from Moullinex, GPU Panic, the overall DTX feel, architecture and technique nurture the nature of the graphism. Designed to add up to graphic systems that expand on the existing personas in a celebratory tone with a continuous codex that allows for flexibility and iconicity in signature and continuity.

Audiowaves Visualised. Pattern is located in the field of electronic music, seeking the universal in the particular, and taking shape in the audioscapes just as in the listener. A universe of sonic language and emotional engagement that unfolds from core brand assets to the particular imagery of events, both in their visual compositions and in their native environments as visual and portraiture moments of the same connection. The storytelling takes sound-generated patterns as portals to tangible elements in rhythm, setting the tone for Flux & Gaze.

Placing Pattern as a moment of expansion, where movement plays a key role in inducing consciousness and nurturing interaction. In this drafting round, we’ve embraced a state of urban tale, of resonance and clear contemporary gestures. Harmonious while set in editorial clarity. Staging the pattern and the musical atmosphere as an extension of the dance floor and performative soundscapes.

From Paris to Berlin, Pattern #02.

Identity design & art direction for the 7th Lisbon Architecture Triennale
Bits from the posters seen in Lisbon signalling the 3 main venues, the core identity and Talk Talk Talk.

“The question How Heavy is a City? shapes the 7th edition of the Lisbon Triennale in autumn 2025, curated by Territorial Agency. It challenges our current understanding of human spaces. The answer demands an inquiry into the new planetary dimension of all networked technological artefacts, and the energy, material, and information fluxes that sustain humanity. And we aim for new ways of understanding how the technological present intersects the fragile dynamics of our living planet. Let’s rethink together notions of citizenship in a transformed world.”

Life Classics #02

On expanding Life Classics #01 we are aimed for tailor a striking evolution in tone with the energetic bursts of the event and it’s connection to tribal and natural sonicscapes, pushing for a recognisable and yet surprising system for the new season launch and continuity.

The system for the images keeps expanding on the real world with a specifically made tool that allows for visual tension, dynamics and a sense of depth and awe in the overall composition.

Night clubs are intimately tribal escapes in the concrete jungle of Berlin.

With dance in mind:

A new way to experience music in London this summer.
An identity built on landscape, location, intention, environment and dynamic culture.

On the banks of the River Thames we push forward with a never-before-used location, framed by East London’s skyline.

We’re composing not from stillness, but from motion — gestural elements that spark from London and its landscape. �In strict coherence with Broadwick Live’s signature identity, we are expanding its impact, stripping it down to minimal compositions that embrace the city. These are then expanded in depth, layered in tone, and, by using minimal gestures, pushed to maximum clarity and frequency.

Boundary-pushing production reimagines the dancefloor for an open—air perspective. Every detail is dialled in.

A visual anchor for the series, roots for the system, and air for the landscape.

Because while freedom calls and the 25th of April is alive we should always remember that flowers can take over fascists.

Por mais solar que seja o coração. Partindo do mote do autor homenageado na edição 2024 da feira do livro, convidamos a luz a entrar, florindo dos jardins, das rosas aos cravos, a efervescência das mãos cheias, o diálogo com as artes e a efervescência a criar um léxico visual que se levanta do chão, como um elemento vivo, solar e popular, em movimento.  Tirando partido da entrega ao fogo, ao empenho e à luminosidade em Eugénio de Andrade, e ancorada em tom de celebração, a identidade para a FLP24 cria um diálogo com as artes utilizando todos os elementos como elementos plásticos, tanto no campo da mensagem como da imagem.

—  Reflecting the passion and brightness of Eugénio de Andrade’s work, this Porto Book Fairs identity celebrates the arts, using literature and authoral gestures as expressive & artistic elements.
