DuoSkin

DuoSkin is a fabrication process that enables anyone to create customized functional devices that can be attached directly on their skin. Using gold metal leaf, a material that is cheap, skin-friendly, and robust for everyday wear, we demonstrate three types of on-skin interfaces: sensing touch input, displaying output, and wireless communication. DuoSkin devices enable users to control their mobile devices and display information on their skin while serving as a statement of personal style.

QBracelet

The QBracelet is a stylish bracelet designed for both men and women that has the ability to charge smartphones. When designing the QBracelet, the Q team was driven by the minimalism exhibited during the Mod era of the late 1960s through 1980s. When looking at the QBracelet you might notice the clean lines, and lack of distinguishing marks on the fluid surface all of which give it an iconic minimalistic design. The QBracelet has set the bar in terms of the possibilities for the marriage of technology and fashion.

Brincante

Created exclusively in stop motion animation, with an art direction and production at the same time richly detailed and artisanal, inspired by Brazilian popular handicraft.The title sequence script recaps the main character’s journey through the Brazilian countryside, across different regions and landscapes. The whole voyage is deliberately shown as taking place within a single stage-like structure, with changes of scenery carried out through ingenious mechanical tricks that echo the theatrical essence of the full-length film’s narrative structure, which was based on two of Nóbrega’s plays.
