Throughout my career, I’ve developed work for Fortune 500 brands like Apple, American Express, Yahoo, KFC, Netflix, and Coca-Cola. I’ve been fortunate to be recognized at the world’s most prestigious design and advertising awards, such as the Art Directors Club, D&AD, The One Show, Clios, and Cannes Lions. In 2023, I was ranked as the #3 most awarded Design Director in the world by The One Club for Creativity and recently saw my work highlighted in Monotype’s 2024 Type Trends report.
I am now the Co-Head of Design at MLDS, a design studio I launched with my partner and friend, Fabio Brigido. Together, we’re shaping the creative future of our clients while pushing ourselves even harder—challenging the limits of design, embracing the scrappy, and obsessing over craft, which for us is non-negotiable. In just our first year, MLDS was named North American Design Agency of the Year—proof that when you bring together a team for whom design isn’t just a job but a calling, great things happen. I’m incredibly grateful to be doing what I love. Please, feel free to drop me a (nicely designed) line at joaopaz330@gmail.com.
