Project Information
Our second collaboration with editor Juliano Corbetta, Brazilian Homo offers a raw and intimate look into the lives of Brazil’s LGBTQIA+ community. Composed of photo editorials and personal interviews with prominent figures (from trans ballroom icon Tanesha to well-known adult content creators including Blessed Boy and Diego Sans), the magazine reveals more than skin — it captures a full spectrum of queer experience.
Our design for Brazilian Homo reinforces the publication’s unfiltered tone and collaborative spirit. We created five distinct covers, each with its own star and hero color; when stacked, the five spines form a vibrant rainbow. Consistent in their typographic layout, all covers prominently feature the names of contributors, including photographer Maria Maltoni and stylist Leandro Porto.
Interior layouts are fluid and dynamic, blending full-bleed photography with unstructured text. Taking a deliberately “un-designed” approach, we opted for a hardworking sans serif (Union by Radim Pesko) across the publication to keep imagery and narrative in focus. In the visual portfolio of OnlyFans creators, spreads become intentionally eclectic, mixing formats to reflect the diverse experiences and styles of the subjects.
Released to great anticipation, the first print run of Brazilian Homo sold out in just days; the second edition is now in the works. Beyond its symbolic impact, the magazine’s launch also included limited-edition merch and posters — the proceeds from which went directly to LGBTQIA+ causes in Brazil.
