Speciall thanks to all my friends who helped me out during the development of the ambigram and to Nicholas Gilbert (turnttype) for all the inspiration.
Also, thanks to Tiago Bettencourt for his beautiful masterpiece.
step by step, side by side was created as a marriage proposal.
I decided to take advantage of the phonetic strenght of the sentence, which is almost a play-on-words, to develop an ambigram, allowing this piece to be read from two different orientations.
There is also an excerpt from Joaquim Pimentel’s poem, “Só nós dois”.
