Visual identity and website for Centro, an artist-run initiative based in Lisbon.
Centro is based in Beato, an area experiencing significant growth in Lisbon’s evolving urban landscape yet remaining outside its historic and commercial centre, the Centro aims to establish a new space for reflection on bridges, relationships, and dialogue between diverse artistic practices.
The project’s graphic identity emerges directly from this vision: the centre can exist wherever you choose to place it. At the same time, it is conceived as a new periphery. Founded in Marvila with a focus on young and emerging artists, the Centro embraces an identity that is deliberately open rather than fixed — constantly searching, constantly curious.
The image created reflects a centre that expands through art, or, conversely, margins that are widened by it.
About Centro:
Centro is an artist-run initiative based in Lisbon’s Beato neighborhood that aims to engage critically with the contemporary art world and support ambitious projects—whether artistic, literary, or theoretical—that contribute to the interrogation of anthropocentric ways of seeing. The interdisciplinary programming consists of workshops, discussions, exhibitions, and performances.
