Our story started in 2021 as a catalog editorial project, where we collaborated with the JOIA Platform and launched three editions. The project was led by Julia da Costa and Vital Lordelo, who are both visual artists and founders of JOIA (2019-2023). In 2024, we transformed into a newsstand, and since then, our focus has been solely led by Vital Lordelo.

In our newsstand and online store, you’ll find a variety of high-quality materials and prints. We work with micro publications, “zines,” serigraphy prints, linoleum prints, risography prints, and more. We value artistic expression in all its forms, and that’s why we carefully select each graphic project we offer.
