Isle of Desterro is an independent publishing studio based in Florianópolis. Through maps, guides, and printed objects, we reframe how people see and feel the island. Inviting a slower, more intentional kind of travel.

Our work bridges design, memory, and place. Each publication is a quiet exploration of landscapes, histories, and ways of belonging.

With a focus on tactile quality, local materials, and thoughtful curation, we create objects meant to be kept. Not souvenirs, but enduring gestures of care for the island and those who come to know it.

We produce locally and collaborate with artists, designers, and craftspeople across Brazil to ensure each piece carries the spirit of its origin.
