Inca’s Treasure<br />

Ecuador 2015<br />

Silver Award - International Creativity Awards<br />

Inca ‘s Treasure is a brand thats is represented<br />

by the Andean cosmovision. This concept<br />

believes that the spiritual world, human world<br />

and the Pachamama (Mother Earth) , are a<br />

universe that are permanently related. This<br />

whole view of nature is to Andean culture, a<br />

living being. Man has a soul, a life force and so<br />

do all plants, animals and terrain. Since man is<br />

nature itself he does not dominate, nor does<br />

he seek to dominate. Life and existence in<br />

nature is a moment in time.<br />

This bold and striking approach will help us<br />

to expand the product line over time. We are<br />

able to use this matrix as a plataform to keep<br />

the brand stylish and fresh. This unique and<br />

complex system will allow us to develope a<br />

pictographic language that will be applied in<br />

each product.<br />

The logo and patterns used for this project<br />

are an abstraction of the matrix of the Andean<br />

cosmovision. It is generated by a circle with<br />

horizontal and vertical stripes, representing<br />

the three mentioned concepts. The matrix<br />

allows us to generate pictorial patterns that are<br />

transformed into graphic imagery.<br />

cultivated, selected and roasted by<br />

craftsmen on organic farms in the southern<br />

highlands of Ecuador, which is one of the<br />

single-origin coffees most characteristic<br />

and desired in the world.<br />

Mixed Emotions<br />

Ecuador 2011<br />

Gold Award<br />

International Creativity Awards<br />

The idea of this project is to sell<br />

emotions through a product. I selected<br />

a concoction of different flavors and<br />

vodka. Each bottle expresses emotions<br />

such as love, sadness, happiness, fear<br />

and anger. The Mixed Emotions cocktail<br />

evokes a feeling and changes your<br />

attitude according to your preference.<br />

The spiral structure forms two straws<br />

that invite the consumer to visualize how<br />

the liquids combine as they drink.<br />

Two tiny mechanisms outline the straws<br />

at the bottom of the container allowing<br />

air to enter, hence permitting the<br />

customer to absorb the liquid. The cap<br />

provides an air-tight seal while the front<br />

panel, invites the consumer to drink, the<br />

back panel depicts phrases to illustrate<br />

the customer’s experience. Because of<br />

its design, the consumers can dance,<br />

jump, go wild or do whatever they<br />

please without worrying about spilling<br />

their drink or breaking the bottle.<br />

GWORKSHOP DESIGN


I consider traveling to be the<br />

best experience that a graphic<br />

designer could have. Blending<br />

different visions and concepts<br />

opens our minds to new<br />

possibilites, as creative people.<br />

I want to have the opportunity<br />

to bring a fresh perspective<br />

to your studio and blend into<br />

the culture, in order to create<br />

innovative and first class<br />

design outcomes.
