Ruben Marques Pedro

I graduated in Advertising & Marketing and worked as an Art Director at Publinter-BDDP ad agency, while doing a post-graduation in Communication Design. After a 4-year spell in this business, I went back to college to attend a BA in Industrial Design, being invited to join GranDesign, Portugal's foremost Product & Transportation Design company. In 2007, I became a "free-lance" designer working in various projects for both areas.

In 2010 I joined Polisport assuring both Communication and Product Design services, from sports graphics and packaging design to product development. I have been working for Polisport brands, as well as for some of the company’s clients such as KTM, Husqvarna, Gas Gas, Rieju Moto, FLY Racing and Decathlon.

I have a natural ability to draw and build “free-hand” models, specializing in foam (expanded polyurethane) and ‘clay’ (TecClay) mock-ups, and I’m focused on using both as powerful problem-solving tools. Transportation Design, Body Protections & Sports Gear feature as all-time favourite subjects. I'm currently available for free-lance or exclusive collaborations.
