This project was developed while working at colönia design studio, under the creative direction of Joana Machado.

It consisted of designing the digital interface of the existing printed version of the Public Art Map Porto, optimized for mobile and desktop devices. Porto City Hall commissioned it and is currently in the development phase.

The remaining artworks – which do not belong to any of the routes – are listed on an index at the bottom in the printed map. They don't have any description or images. I attributed them a neutral grey colour.

This project was developed while working at colönia design studio, under the creative direction of Joana Machado.

It consisted of designing the digital interface of the existing printed version of the Public Art Map Porto, optimized for mobile and desktop devices. Porto City Hall commissioned it and is currently in the development phase.

Launched by the Porto City Hall in 2017, the printed map is available in English and Portuguese and can be found at no cost at the tourist offices around the city and at the airport.

It references more than 200 sculptures and panels of public art from the last 150 years. It is "a true open-air museum in which the whole city can get involved", as Rui Moreira puts it.

It is foldable and can be carried around the city to discover its History through the eyes of Art.

However, the 100x70cm map may prove impractical for on-the-go exploration. Constantly flipping between the front and back to access both the map and artwork descriptions, as required for following suggested routes, could be cumbersome. A digital solution, on the other hand, would effortlessly handle this task.

Map

To make navigation easier, the artworks can be accessed in three different ways: via the points marked on the map, through a thumbnail view, or by selecting the list view.
