Portuguese illustrator Gaspar Costa brings an old‑world elegance to modern design with his exquisite engraving‑style illustrations.
His work graces packaging, branding, labels, and more, with a skillful blend of craftsmanship and storytelling.
Trained in product design at the University of Minho, Costa discovered his passion after a pen‑and‑ink course with Daniel Silvestre.
He seamlessly combines detailed linework and hand‑lettering with contemporary branding, resulting in work that feels both timeless and relevant.
His style feels like rediscovering a lost treasure, and we feel inspired to pick up a pen, and try our hand at some of this intricate, detail-driven work.
We love these little in-page illustrations, packed with detail and grace.
Offering custom design work, branding, and one-off projects, Costa’s work makes a bold, yet classy impression.
