Born in 1998, my name is João Acácio.
From Portugal, I am a self-taught graphic designer and currently based in Barcelona, Spain.
I am specialized in Brand & Visual Identity with a big love for Merchandise & Artwork design for bands in the Metal scene, and also designs for the Esports scene.
When I was a kid I always loved the video games where I could personalize the most, for exemple: edit car colors, personalize my character as much as possible, create badges, logos, shields... so and so on... you get the idea!
With this, I started my journey back in 2016 playing around with Photoshop making abstract wallpapers, social media headers for fun and also creating all the logos, posters and designs for the Gaming community me and my friends created back in the day.
Soon got my Certificate in Graphic Design from FLAG – Design, Creativity & Communication (Portugal, 2017-18).
Nowadays, you can find me working for Gameloft Barcelona, working in projects such as Disney Speedstorm & Asphalt 9: Legends as a 2D Artist where I can do what I love the most, design and create.
