Adonis Evangelista
I am an industrial and product designer from Bahia, Brazil, currently based in Porto, Portugal. With a background in Mechanical Engineering and a Master’s in Industrial and Product Design from the University of Porto, my practice explores design as an agent of transformation – a tool for reimaging the relationship between matter, industry, and culture.
My work begins with the observation of industrial waste and its natural behaviors, transforming what would otherwise be discarded into new formal and functional languages.
I see design as an act of listening and repair. Each project is born from observation, experimentation, and the desire to give meaning back to what the industrial system rejects.
Above all, my work seeks to raise a question: what can emerge when we look at waste not as an end, but as a beginning?
