Brazil Design Stand in Cannes Lions
Stand design to represent Brazilian design at the Cannes Lions Festival in an eye-catching manner. The theme “Brazil. Unique Blend. Unique Design” was translated into a large mosaic of postcards. Each postcard worked individually, though when displayed together they formed a unique visual image depicting the country in its cultural and visual diversity. Visitors were invited to interact with the panel and thus take a “piece of Brazil” with them when heading back home.
