About

In many ways, Carlos perfectly lives up to his double Libra sign. He brings calmness to any situation (frequent bubble baths and slow-cooked risotto are both features of his home life). He considers problems from every angle. And he appreciates all things visual which unsurprisingly, led him to design. After earning his degree, Carlos left his home in Brazil for NYC with little more than a plan to become a designer at a branding agency. Spoiler: it worked out. Today Carlos has worked with leading tech giants, social justice organizations, renowned dance troupes, and everything in between. He shares his expertise with the next generation as a teacher at Aprender Design, and applies it to create powerful work here at Base. As Associate Design Director, Carlos's job is to make the intangible, tangible. He translates abstract ideas, values, and characteristics into coherent visual systems—a process that ultimately results in deep meaning and lasting connection.
