From the territorial design, the objective is to identify the most representative elements and icons of the city of Porto Alegre to achieve the final outcome – the development of patterns and its application in goods, for export and local usage. The surface design project developed through the view of the territorial design work as a strategy to improve the value of the city image, strengthening the city identity locally and globally. | en |
