  Born the 4th of September of 1974, Hugo went through the Portuguese revolution in the warmth and confort of the womb.  Years later, after graduating in Communication Design he freelanced his way to the business world. He believes graphic design is a great tool both for education and inspiration, so from the start he always tried to gravitate towards social and ecological causes, companies or events.
