(Re)Generative Design
with: Le Brimet
BIO: Le_Brimet is a futuristic “Afronaut,” a multidisciplinary Portuguese Creative Director born in São Tomé and Príncipe. His creative approach embraces the ArtCreTech concept, a symbiosis between Art, Creativity, and Technology. He defines himself as a (Re)Generative Computational Designer with holistic and exploratory thinking. He operates in “phygital” environments – between the digital and the analog. Over the last 10 years, he has gained international recognition and awards. He was recently highlighted by FRAME magazine as “Ones to watch” – a distinction that highlights the most prominent digital creatives on a global scale. He regularly presents his work at the world’s largest design events and fairs.
He is the founder and creative director of [SPECTROOM], an architecture and design studio that develops projects in various areas: product design, art installations, architecture, and research. [SPECTROOM] focuses on implementing new technologies in the production of forms and spaces, exploring strategic combinations between (Re)generative processes (computational design + artificial intelligence), sustainability, and digital fabrication technologies (3D printing, CNC, and robotics). The goal is to explore the potential of digital tools as catalysts for creative processes, transforming pixels into atoms and virtual protocols into tangible objects and physical environments.

From concept to final design: the evolution of chair
with: Christophe de Sousa
Franco-Portuguese designer Christophe de Sousa was born in France in 1979. While still young, he moved to Portugal, his parents’ homeland, an experience that shaped his multicultural perspective.
Living among different cultures and traveling frequently became essential sources of inspiration for his work. From an early age, he demonstrated a strong passion and talent for drawing, which led him to study Industrial Design at the Lusíada University of Porto, establishing the foundation for his creative journey.
Over the years, he has collaborated with companies in various sectors and received prestigious international awards, which has allowed him to develop and refine his technical knowledge and unique visual identity. Driven by the pursuit of perfection, his creative approach values the relationship between form and function, finding his greatest allies in the details.
Since the beginning of 2018, Christophe de Sousa Studio has been based in Porto, Portugal. It collaborates with renowned brands such as Delta Cafés, Siemens, Wewood, and Mercedes-Benz Headquarters, as well as international institutions like the Catholic University of Chile and BID16 – Ibero-American Design Biennial.
His work is recognized both in Europe (European Parliament Product Design Award 2017, Brussels, Belgium) and internationally (Good Design Product Award 2017, Chicago, USA).
