Co-founder of and art director at the agency 1000olhos - Imagem e Comunicação. Over the years he has discovered a real professional passion in making books. His own and those resulting from the work of 1000olhos clients. A lover of creating concepts, putting together teams (with specialists in each of the thematic areas of each project), monitoring and supervising graphic creation.Mariano takes particular pleasure in choosing papers, printing techniques, finishing materials. Accompanying printing in the print shop, adapting, to being able to hold the physical object in your hand! Feeling its weight and stroking the paper, hearing the pages turn and looking at it from all angles to see the reliefs and textures of the finish, smelling the mixture of smells. This is why, in João's opinion, the book, as a physical object, will always be eternal.
