Creating Your Own World

A short review of how Luis Mendo created his membership program Mundo Mendo. After a career of 20 years as an Editorial Designer and Art Director in Amsterdam, Luis moved to Japan and took on drawing seriously becoming an illustrator. Having been working in the realm where image and text meet, it was only natural that he wouldn’t stay only on the illustration side, so he created a world (literally, Mundo Mendo means Mendo’s World) where he can write, draw and design it all. 

A website full of stories which are collected into a physical book once a year, Mundo Mendo is now on his 2nd book.
