Catalogue for the biennial exhibition showcasing Andréa and José Olympio Pereira’s Brazilian art collection. Its graphic design was conceived to allow the reader to follow the curator’s intended route while turning the pages. The layout aligns the photographs of the artworks with the exhibition’s floor plan, which is printed on the catalogue’s flap.

The section titles were printed using a transparent varnish, creating a subtle effect that is only revealed at certain angles of light, enhancing the visual and tactile interaction with the book. Similarly, the embossed, unprinted title on the cover features silver printing on the reverse side of the paper. The paperback book features a folder-style cover and exposed spine binding, allowing it to open completely flat.
