Rita Castilho Sá Couto, also known as Rita Laranja, is a multidisciplinary designer based in Porto (PT). She works in various forms and formats across all platforms, blending the worlds of analog and digital. From idea to execution, she builds creative worlds with a strong focus on art direction.

As a printmaker, she is fascinated by various hand printing techniques; thus, most of her personal work takes the form of relief prints created using the lengthy process of lino-cutting and wood-cutting. As a result, her work is defined by the exploration of disruptive visuals with a fascination for analogue methods and imperfect results.

Together with the Onda Team, I worked on the brand exploration and application for Banyan — a company focused on providing decentralized data storage. We took the growth pattern of the Banyan tree as a representation of expansion and decentralization and used it to explore Banyan’s brand identity.

Cubist is a web3 development and deployment platform that seeks to allow developers to use familiar programming languages and integrated services for building and deploying applications. By exploring Cubism fragmentation concept as an art form, Onda Studio crafted a narrative that represents a place where developers can connect different languages, and build the future of the web.
