I’m Rafael Martins, a Brazilian art director based in São Paulo, currently working at AKQA Casa.I’m drawn to ideas that bring people together and turn into something tangible. I enjoy collaborating, exchanging perspectives and learning from the people around me [cheers to that!]. The best work is rarely made alone, and I’m grateful to everyone who has challenged me, shared a thought or helped make an idea better along the way.I’m a hands on creative who cares about the details just as much as the big idea. I like getting involved in the making, experimenting with different tools, exploring unexpected directions and figuring things out as I go. For me, the craft is part of the thinking, not just the final polish.Over the years, I’ve worked across different countries, teams and disciplines, creating work for a range of brands and audiences. I’m always looking for new ways to make good ideas happen, with curiosity, care and a healthy amount of trial and error.
