before creating, i listen and that's where it all begins

that's how i see design it's not about memorizing shortcuts or mastering every tool - it's about listening, observing, and translating what you want to say.

i've always been like this: curious, paying attention to what's behind the words. and it's from this place that i create. because in the end, design is that - telling your story the right way.

so, who's kauan faria?

design

for me, design isn't just about mastering tools or following trends it's about translating what you want to say in a way that makes sense to you and to those who find you every detail matters when the intention is clear.

my approach always starts with dialogue – because no one understands your vision better than you. i just help give it shape.

Kauan Faria - Iluminação Rosa

a young guy who understands people

i’m an 18-year-old who moves between technology and creativity. for me, design isn’t about mastering all the tools, but about listening and understanding what each person really needs.

education and experience

technical course in computer science from iftm: this foundation gives me the confidence to navigate the digital world with logic and technique.

web designer at winbound marketing: in my work, I combine technical knowledge with creative sensitivity, translating what clients want in a unique way.

vision

i believe each project is a story to be told. my focus is to create authentic connections – because in the end, the essence isn’t in the tools, but in understanding and communicating who you are.

photography

photography has always been a way to see beyond the obvious. before understanding techniques, i needed to capture feelings – that moment that says more than a thousand words. this visual sensitivity has helped me create more authentic narratives in each project.

it's a keen eye for details and the stories that each image carries.

timeline of my development

July 17, 2006

i was born

some people believe that art is a gift we’re born with, and even if that’s true, my doodles on paper never really caught much attention

early years in school

my first creations

in my early years at school, I developed a liking for origami, airplanes, acrobatic birds… I was amazed by what could come from a sheet of paper

5th grade

recognition

i always caught the teachers’ attention for having good grades and learning quickly. but that day, a teacher asked me to teach my classmates how to make an origami frog, and that’s when i realized i could do something with it

6th grade

first steps in programming

in sixth grade, I was introduced to programming in C by my brother. I started creating an interactive story (even though I never finished it) as proof that creation never stopped, even though origami was left behind.

something between 2018 and 2020

creativity on pause

during this period, I didn’t create anything memorable, but the desire to create was always present. even without major milestones, it showed me that creativity can pause without affecting the bigger picture.

the 2020 pandemic

community and minecraft

with the arrival of the pandemic, I decided, along with my brother, to create a Minecraft server. that feeling of community, seeing things I made working and making people happy, was transformative – even though the project didn’t stay financially sustainable and had to be shut down.

2022, beginning of IFTM

discovering web development

I joined IFTM in computer science. Although programming subjects were already easy for me, the big turning point was when I was introduced to web development. I started exploring beautiful and interactive visuals, and I always ended up being the one responsible for web design in group projects

last year of high school

the awakening to design

in an entrepreneurship project, I created a logo that sparked my true interest in design. in my senior year, I decided to create an annual project about design, seeking a company to develop a visual identity. I was amazed when “the donut woman,” my first client (Cíntia Vieira), accepted my proposal and loved the results. that’s when I realized: even without being a natural artist on paper, the essence lies in listening and translating what the client truly wants

after highschool

towards professional design

I finished high school being accepted into computer science at UFU – but I chose to create more than just technical things. I was accepted again into UFU, this time for design, with classes starting on June 9, 2025. At the same time, I started working at Winbound Marketing as a web designer, finally putting into practice the idea of creating things that attract and are pleasant for people
