About Event

Think of our fourth event as a love letter to you and the Lisboa Design Community. We're joining forces with other design communities to bring you our first co-working day where you can meet other designers + talks + a dinner with speakers afterwards. Unfortunately, our number of sits is fairly limited.

Join our community on Slack so you can get to know other designers, events and job opportunities.

About the Speakers

Paulo Fonseca, Co-Founder at proposals.app (Original LisbonUX founder)

Power structures are all around us. They are constantly being manipulated by everyone in a myriad of ways, and they affect us humans, deeply. These power structures didn't just fell out from the sky, they were very deliberatively created. They were designed. All Humans, are designers of power structures, all of the time. The highest goal of a Designer is to design important and impactful power structures, in the fairest way possible, for all of humanity.

Worked in multiple industries all over the world, from healthcare to fintech, and supporting both established corporations and scrappy startups. Founded a few startups as well and advised a handful of others, and now he's building proposals.app, an open-source governance tool for DAO people, focused especially

DEBUT TALK: Andreea (aarchi)

Sometimes it can be scary to start your own journey. Following our initiative to give an opportunity to people that are in different stages of their careers, providing mentorship and coaching from more seasoned speakers, we were able to bring you our third and last one — Andreea Resmeritoaia!

Andreea, also known as aarcii, is a graphic designer with a background in fashion design and painting. She is currently developing a personal project and movement dedicated to sharing the knowledge and experiences of designers, for young designers. Based in Bucharest, Andreea is focused on building a supportive and creative community.

Her first talk will answer the question: Are labels just the badge of "I made it," or simply a fancy name we put on for show?​​
