👋 Hi, welcome!

It's nice to see you around here. Let me introduce myself.


My name's Guilherme Costa, I was born in Curitiba, the only Brazilian capital where it has ever snowed, and where a revolution once started because of a comb. As you can see, many curious things happen there. But to take a break from the cold weather and combs, I moved to São Palo, where I'm living now.

Currently I lead an innovation hub called VMLab inside VML-São Paulo, where I also work as an art director.

Over ten years of experience, there are some clients who’ve bet on my stuff: Warner Bros, Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Dell, Pedigree (Latam), Electrolux (Latam), Snickers, KFC, Mentos, Fruittella, and others.


I hope you enjoyed the projects I selected, they were made with love ᰔ. Even so, I’m always pushing myself every day to create the next best work of my life. And here’s how it should be: make people have fun, feel special or badass.

If you're looking for a creative like me, give me a call and let me make you proud.

If you’re not, you can still call me and I’ll tell you how I ended up with a baby goat as a pet. Or about the time I did a silent retreat in a temple, just like a monk. Or even why I have a professional microscope in my house.
