Design & Lettering: Taty Frankalino
Lettering Cearencês Stickers
This is a personal project about typical expressions and words from the Ceará and the Nordeste of Brazil. The popular culture in the state of Ceará and in the Nordeste are very strong points that stand out in these places, and the way people communicate in their day-to-day life brings very rich contributions with expressions full of personality and energy that are typical of this local dialect. For this project, 8 everyday expressions that I usually use and hear around here were chosen to be interpreted in the form of lettering, with colors and shapes that convey the energy and personality of this wonderful little piece of Brazil! As a by-product of this project, 8 stickers were created to expand the boundaries of the use of these expressions, whether physically or online. This project was selected for the 14th Brazilian Design Biennial, finalist of the Brasil Design Awards 2024 in the Craft for Design category and finalist of the Latin American Design Awards 2025, in the Typography category.
Winning project at the Latin American Design Awards 2025 in the typography category, receiving a bronze trophy. Selected for the catalog of the 14th ADG Brazilian Design Biennial and shortlisted for the Brasil Design Awards 2024 in the Craft for Design category.
