Specializing in design and illustration, Miraphora and Eduardo have continued their involvement in the Wizarding World through numerous design commissions, from creating all the graphics for The Wizarding World of Harry Potter—Diagon Alley at Universal Orlando Resort to designing award-winning publications.. Studio MinaLima is renowned internationally for telling stories through design and has created its own MinaLima Classics series, reimagining a growing collection of much-loved tales including Peter Pan, The Secret Garden, The Adventures of Pinocchio, and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
"No collection of children's classic stories would be
complete without the inclusion of the tales by the Brothers Grimm so
it was natural that our latest challenge would be reimagining Snow White,
Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin and many more characters and their
chronicles – all collected in one complete, colourful compendium."
Miraphora Mina, co-founder of Studio MinaLima
"This is our ninth title in the MinaLima Classics series and as this is an anthology of multiple stories rather than a singular piece, we sought to compile a feast of vivid visual treatments that work beautifully together. As with all our books, this, too, was crafted with readers of all ages in mind and has interactive elements throughout to make them actively participate in these much-loved tales."
Eduardo Lima, co-founder of Studio MinaLima
