Linnaeus Lisbon
Led the rebranding of a Botanical Club into Linnaeus, a "Nocturnal Apothecary" in Lisbon’s Bairro Alto district. I conceptualized a new visual identity, replacing generic aesthetics with a high-contrast, tactile design system that transitions from refined mixology by day to high-energy nightclub by night.
