Senior Art Director at TBWA\Lew Lara
São Paulo, Brazil

About me

I’m a Brazilian creative, born in Rio de Janeiro and based in São Paulo. Most of my 17-year experience was built in multinational group agencies, especially JWT Brazil, Publicis Brazil and TBWA\Lew Lara. I’ve developed projects for Coca-Cola, AB InBev, Ford, Chevrolet, UFC, and L’Oréal.

I believe in the use of creativity to instigate the culture, surprise the audience and establish meaningful connections between brands and people. I’m passionate about conceptual thinking, polished visuals and making ideas happen.

Fortunately, I’ve been honored with numerous international awards such as Cannes Lions, Lions Health, One Show, Clio Awards, Webby Awards, El Ojo and Wave Festival.

In the last four years, I’ve had the privilege to contribute as a Jury Member for The New York Festivals, Mad Stars, Wina Awards, Mobius Awards, Lisbon Awards and PHNX. You can check out my work at leandrobechara.com.
