Cervantes Awards

Graphic Identity

The typographic portrait of Cervantes was created by Estrada Design to commemorate 14 years of the Miguel de Cervantes Literature Award, one of the most prestigious international literary accolades. These awards are regarded as the utmost recognition of the creative efforts of Spanish and Latin American writers whose work has contributed to significantly enriching literary heritage in the Spanish language.

The image draws the face of Miguel de Cervantes using the letters of his surname with a visual order and hierarchy that make it easy to read. The logo won the European Arts Directors Club award.

The Ministry of Culture of Spain published a book bearing this image on the cover that contained the speeches of each of the winning writers of the Cervantes Award between the years 1976 and 1994.

Crime Series

El País
Editorial Design

This collection of 50 crime novels was one of the first publications to be launched by El País newspaper, which succeeded in doubling the sales of the newspaper.

The design by Estrada Design always divides the cover in half: a black half alternates with a brightly coloured other half, creating an interesting chromatic separation on the spines.

The illustrations produced by Estrada Design play a prominent role in each cover’s design and are almost always in black and white. The El País Crime Series is one of the most widely distributed book series out of all those published by El País newspaper.

A six Year

A Six Year

Publication of the Study

Every year, the pivotal period between the last days of the year that is ending and the first days of the one that is beginning becomes a fertile time for creation. A multitude of images, videos and graphics crowds the atmosphere for several weeks, broadcasting corporate messages and good wishes from companies
and institutions.

Designers examine the digits composing the number that represents the new year, looking for features and shapes to make it more memorable and expressive.

At Estrada Design, we make the most of this transitional period in the calendar to take visual stock of the past year and select a few projects to represent it.

We are thus continuing with a series of annual publications to share our work with collaborators, design professionals and, above all, with the teams at companies and institutions who make the work possible.

Logos, Brands and Identity programs are an essential part of Estrada Design’s work every year.

These are projects whose intensity, scope and complexity cannot be reflected in this short, essentially visual selection.

But they remain the projects that best explain the activity of a company committed to demonstrating and reconciling design’s economic and business utility with its characteristic of being an expression of contemporary culture.

Another large part of Estrada Design’s activity is linked to this cultural and communicative dimension of design. This work is generally for Cultural institutions, Museums, Universities and public, social or cultural entities. 

These projects reveal another essential dimension of design: its public interest. Finally, this selection of projects also gives visual prominence to the importance of editorial design in our work.

Magazines, digital publications and, notably, book covers, continue to play a highly significant role as tools for visualisation and showcasing knowledge.

Thanks to their content and visual capacity, books continue to stand out as one of the flagships of the Cultural industry.

At Estrada Design, we are publishing this project summary at the beginning of 2026, which we hope will be a favourable period for human intelligence and good design.
