Who is this online course for?

Don't worry if infographics are not really your thing. In a few years, you may regret not having taken advantage of this course. So get ready, you'll thank yourself later. The course is open to anyone with the motto "Divide et impera," because it's the only way to live in the world of infographics.

Requirements and materials

You need basic knowledge of Adobe tools, you'll be fine with a bit of Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator. If you've worked with typography and visual hierarchy before, even better. If not, there's a first time for everything!

For materials, all you need is a computer and your brain in gear.

Relajaelcoco is a graphic design studio that offers happiness and good vibes, founded by Francesco Furno and Pablo Galeano. Their work process would not exist without the amount of music devoured on a daily basis. It is a rational process, based on a specific methodology, but which makes happiness the most important aspect of working life.

They were born freelancers—hierarchies and bosses have always given them hives because they cage creativity. They claim graphic nomadism, traveling with and for the mind and intensely living design in all its facets, parties included. They work for national and international clients whose names cannot be revealed due to national security issues.

Domestika says: after a few calls, we have the green light to reveal some names. Their clients include Mini, BBC, Jot Down, Yorokobu, Mapping Residences, Vueling, and BBVA. They have also taught at the IED in Madrid and Barcelona, the IE Business School, the University of Salamanca, the Mr. Marcel School, and Trazos.
