FS: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?
F0: For a proposal with the party theme S.Joao team developed a survey around the tradition and spoke with locals. After gathering this information the design should have the socioeconomic consciousness of a country in crisis, and the materials chosen are the element that causes the reflection faded color of a gray society full of sadness.
FS: What are your future plans for this award winning design?

FS: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?

FS: Which design tools did you use when you were working on this project?
F0: For the initial design we use the digital tools and 3D modeling, for the assembly only with sweat and dedication of the local community.
FS: What is the most unique aspect of your design?
F0: It is the relationship with the local people and the rehabilitation of tradition using reflected balloons instead of colored.
FS: Is your design influenced by data or analytical research in any way? What kind of research did you conduct for making this design?
F0: For a proposal with the party theme S.Joao team developed a survey around the tradition and spoke with locals. After gathering this information the design should have the socioeconomic consciousness of a country in crisis, and the materials chosen are the element that causes the reflection faded color of a gray society full of sadness.

F0: The main challenge faced was to convince the population that the tradition can be shaped and adapted.
FS: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition?

FS: What did you learn or how did you improve yourself during the designing of this work?
F0: Not always the assumptions of the design has to do with what we learn in universities but often has to do with what we have learned in life and contact with people.
