Establishing the visual identity of the original Gonçalo chair

Arcalo is a metal furniture manufacturer. Renowned as the creator of the legendary Gonçalo Chair, the most iconic portuguese chair. Being a family business, Arcalo’s never made an effective effort to promote the brand or its original furniture. Therefore, we were assigned to develop a full showcase of Arcalo’s products.

Catalog

A flexible fan deck

Innovation and experimentation never stops at Arcalo’s Product design department, resulting in constant modification of its catalog. Inspired by color catalogs they are familiar with and in order to provide a solution that empower designers and sellers we designed a flexible and easy to use catalog made of independent product sheets, grabbed together with a corner axle.

Crafting the Gonçalo Chair web experience

We developed Arcalo’s website with a participatory design approach. Brand integration, navigation and layout was iterated several times in small increments until client final approval.
