My role was centered around facilitating the creative studio, formed of designers with Down Syndrome and autism. We worked for clients including: Vueling, Veritas, Correos, and the Ajuntament de Barcelona, among others.
Intellectual Diversity
Having a team incorporating creatives with Down Syndrome and people with autism along with strategists, marketing people, UX experts, established creatives and other newcomers straight out of college, consultants, trainers, designers, researchers and artists lead to fun, out of the box projects with diverse applications, like promotional materials that are unforgettable and friendly food packaging that is delightful.
