Metamorfose
Hugo Costa, Marta Cabral and Rafael Pinho
Project 1 for Advanced Studies in Editorial Design and Typography — a group editorial publication built from contrasting themes chosen individually by each member and then brought together in a single printed publication.



This catalog unfolds as a visual journey through the inevitability of transformation, proposing a life cycle that moves through rise, power and decline. The images guide the reader through a silent reflection on time, permanence and erosion.
