Information

Nicole Fuentes -in charge of Ediciones Universidad Tecnológica Metropolitana- contacted me to design, produce two titles for a new edition for the "Cultura y Sociedad" Collection called "El Movimiento Universitario Chileno, Origen y desarrollo 2011-2018" written for Máximo Quitral as a Doctoral Thesis (PhD) from the National University of San Martín (UNSAM), Argentina. The second one called "Formas de lo Político en el Siglo XXI, claves para la comprensión del poder" by Francisco Tirado, Martín David de Moura & José Antonio Román, a compilation of articles where they expose specific ways in which, in this 21st century, the relations between States, global powers and humanity affect the practices of our daily life.

The assignment consisted of proposing a design that would maintain all the "vibe and aesthetics" of the Chilean University Movements since the end of the Pinochet Dictatorship -that is, from around 2006 to 2010- and that, at the same time, would respect and maintain relations with the editorial standards of the publishing house itself, with high aesthetic value and sharp macro and micro typographic work.

In the case of "Formas de lo Político en el Siglo XXI, claves para la comprensión del poder", it was a commission with more freedom because the publisher was proposed the use of the substrate over the design itself -considering the content-. In addition, Ediciones UTEM Catalog lacks covers where only typography and color are used -they usually have more photographic covers-. As of today, June 13, 2023, the book is about to be presented in the following days in Santiago, Chile.
