Hi, I'm Rafael Hoffmann. Hi, I'm Rafael Hoffmann. I am a university professor and freelance graphic designer. I have a degree in Advertising, postgraduate certificate in Graphic Design and a master’s degree in Language Sciences. I have been working with graphic design and advertising projects for 20 years. You can take a look at some of these projects at my Behance. Rahma Projekt is my alter ego, my almost secret identity.
I think someone who goes through a moment of doubt, uncertainty, personal, professional or existential problems, needs a relief valve. I also think that for those who work with design, art, or anything else that involves creativity, the valve is just create. To create just for the pleasure of creating. No briefing, no pressure, no client, no pretense.
With me it was like this: I took the crisis, joined with good humor, design, pop culture references and a pinch of music and Rahma Projekt was born. It was born and I could create what I like, the way I like, without worrying about having to give explanation or make sense. Just a personal, independent, conceptual and experimental project. The relief valve that joins three of my passions: design, music and pop culture.
However, what was supposed to be just a personal thing and without pretense, a way to unwind and unplug the world for a while, ended up growing more than I expected. And now, some of these things that came out when I opened the valve are available online in shops worldwide. You can find them at posters, t-shirts, phone cases, pillows and even shower curtains (really!). Take a look here.
