The website isn’t fully finished yet! I’m building it little by little whenever I find some free time. Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.
Welcome to Studio 279
I’m José Amaral, a visual content creator working between Taiwan and Luxembourg, with a background in photo and video journalism, documentary-style photography and filmmaking, window display design, and visual communication.
Holding a C.A.T.P. in Décorateur-Étalagiste (window display design), I specialize in developing visual concepts for retail spaces, brands, and digital media, combining artistic vision with hands-on, practical experience.
My work brings together window display design, visual merchandising, retail and interior concepts, graphic design, and visual content creation, including photography and video, to craft cohesive and meaningful visual stories. Whether designing a boutique window or retail interior, developing a brand identity, or producing motion and digital visuals, my focus is always on clarity, emotion, and storytelling.
After several years of international experience across photography, video, and design, I now merge traditional display craftsmanship with modern digital tools, including SketchUp, Enscape, and the Adobe Creative Suite.
This portfolio showcases my creative direction across retail design, graphic communication, and visual content creation, transforming ideas into engaging visual experiences that connect people, spaces, brands, and stories.
