NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm

Marcelo

Born in Brazil and raised in Portugal. 

I studied arts in Lisbon and went on to earn a master's degree in architecture. Since 2019, I’ve been working as an architect, and in 2022, I launched my own company specializing in architecture and 3D architectural visualization. 

Currently based in the north of Portugal, I’ve been involved in various projects, constantly exploring new ways to combine creativity and functionality in design.
