Thayse Viégas

Design your immagination

Thayse Viégas is founder of the project Casa Canvas and creator of the format Canvas Talks. Thayse created new forms of promotion for emerging designers, going beyond the traditional concept of curatorship and that of art-design galleries, finding in networking the power to create new communication opportunities.
With Casa Canvas she envisaged a new world and a new way for communicating and promoting design and designers and she realised it.

Canvas Talk is a format born from the idea of creating a networking opportunity between women belonging to the creative industry around a topic: Build and Rebuild. Imaginative capacity, willpower and design dimension are at the basis of these changes and evolutions and Thayse’s objective is to tell these micro stories creating opportunities for sharing and developing new scenarios generated by the relationship between people. Sustainability for us today is also ability to imagine new forms of sharing and networking, between listening and exchange.
