Observatório de Universos Bíblicos

Identity and the routine of a research group

For the research group I lead with José Adriano Filho at Faculdade Unida de Vitória, I created the brand and the group’s materials: brochure, lecture template, posts, website and the material for its international events.

The Observatório de Universos Bíblicos brand on white: an open orange book under orbits, a star and two planets.
Context

The group studies religious phenomena, practices and productions from the contexts in which biblical texts were written and received, along three lines: material and visual, social and literary, and socio-epistemic mediations.

What I did

An open book under the orbits

Taking up the premise of a platform for observing the context in which the biblical texts were produced, the symbol evokes a planetarium for observing the “biblical universes”. From the Bible, orbits form and stars and planets appear, a visual image of the group’s focus.

A template for lectures

A strongly coloured cover, numbered section dividers and inner pages with room for large images and quotations. In the lecture “As ferramentas e seus humanos”, on the iconographies of the Fribourg School, it organises 61 slides.
