Fado Malvado

Brand Design “Fado Malvado”

The creation of the logo symbol was based on the main instruments of this musical group, the guitar/bass fret and the accordion bellows…three bars because, initially, the group had three members, Davide, Filipe and António.

The typography has a signature fusion referring to the mark of time (Fado)… and the typography (Malvado) has an influence on Argentine culture, inspiration resulting from the origin of the group, previously with the name “Trio Porteño” who played Piazzola, and other Argentine authors.

“Pontos de Passagem” Album Design

The album’s design was inspired by the paths we cross in life, the vanishing points and the doors we pass through. The blurred motion images represent ephemeral moments and the black & white takes us back to memories.

Video Clip “Tempo”

Fado Malvado’s first single was released in April 2021, at a time when the country was timidly beginning to return to normal life after Covid19, “Tempo” – that’s what the debut song is called – served as a tribute to all those who work in the area of ​​culture – no just artists, but also technical staff and assistants – who saw their lives put on hold due to the pandemic.
The single’s presentation video reflected the goal of the song and was filmed at the Águeda Arts Center with the collaboration and participation of some employees of this cultural institution.
