If this Manifesto touches at least one person in any way, it’s already been worth it.
— João & Teresa
About the unfolding
5 years ago, “A Designer’s Manifesto”↗ was born and all the amazing feedback we got from peers, educators and students made it one of the most fulfilling experiences we’ve had in the 15 years we’ve been in this industry. Partly because of how some things changed in the last five years and partly because of how some things don’t ever need changing, we decided to revisit it, to unfold it.
Without straying from the original idea that brought us here, we rethinked some concepts, reinforced what we considered to still be relevant, and – most importantly – decided to invite some of the most talented designers we know. They made this whole experience not only technically and conceptually better, but bigger than ourselves as it should be.
If this Manifesto touches at least one person in any way that might be meaningful and improve how they feel about their professional life, it’s already been worth it.
