A Year in Making-Ofs 🔨
We were hoping to win the Guinness World Record for being the last people on the planet to send their New Year wishes… and I think we did it! Hip hip hooray! 🎉 All jokes aside, Happy New Year, or Feliz Año Nuevo, as we say in Spanish. Thank you for joining us on this incredible art-making journey—we’re beyond grateful to have you with us. We hope our images made you smile at some point in 2024 and we can’t wait to keep doing so in 2025. Here’s a quick compilation of some of our favorite making-of videos from last year. We hope you enjoy it! PS: Stay tuned for part 2 because 2024 was BUSY! 😮💨
Our dream book come true! 📕
Since Anna and I started taking pictures together almost 10 years ago, we have always dreamed of creating a book with all our images that could inspire not only architects and designers but people of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities. A book that could make people from all over the world smile and wonder about the world around us, a reminder that happiness can be found in the simplest of things.
We are incredibly grateful to our editors @counterprintbooks , to everyone who have supported us throughout this incredible journey and to those who now hold this book in their hands. If you haven’t already, you can get your very own signed copy of Happytecture at the link in our bio or by visiting our website annandaniel.com/shop.
Thank you once again for being a part of this incredible journey. Your support means the world to us, and we can’t wait for Happytecture to bring a smile to your face.

Sweet Dreams🧋
“When we all fall asleep, where do we go?” is not only the title of a great album, but also a question I find myself coming back to quite often. Take @anniset here for example. I have absolutely no idea where she may have gone… But knowing her, I’d bet she’s somewhere pretty straw-ordinary! 😌

We knew creating the key visuals for the largest wine event in Portugal was a big deal… but we had no idea just how much they would take over the festival, and the city itself! I guess it’s true what they say: with grape power… 💪🍇🤣
Sip left to check all the places where we found the artworks we created for @essenciadovinho and @winetravelweek in Porto! 👉👀
Grape Minds 🍇
I know I’m no sommelier but, after creating the 2026 key visuals for Essência do Vinho and Wine Travel Week festival, I’ve learned one thing: I like my wine like I like my @anniset : bold, sweet, and with a grape personality! 😍😂
Stay tuned for our next post to see these two artworks in action all over Porto! 👀
Madame Butterfly 🦋
AD As a little girl, I always dreamed of flying. Now, years later, inspired by the Google 10 Pro Fold, I’ve turned that dream into a dress that lets me soar through the skies… And look pretty fly while doing it 😌. A wing-wing situation, if you ask me. #TeamPixel @googlepixeluk

Say beeeach! 😉📸 AD Photography is hotter than ever, especially now that Al content is taking over everyone’s feeds. Which is exactly why we loved teaming up with @mpbcom to celebrate this beautiful art form. As all photographers and video makers know, they are the go-to place for buying or selling used camera gear. That’s why for this collaboration they provided the lens... while I, well... I brought the “camera body”! 😏 Get it?! Camera body! 🤣

PUBLI La fotografía está más de moda que nunca, especialmente ahora que el contenido generado con IA inunda las redes sociales. Por eso nos ha encantado colaborar con @mpbcom para celebrar el bello arte de la fotografía. Y es que, como cualquier fotógrafo o videógrafo sabe, MPB es el mejor sitio para comprar o vender material fotográfico de segunda mano. En esta colaboración, ellos pusieron la lente… y yo, bueno… yo puse el “cuerpo”. 😏 ¿Lo pilláis? ¡El cuerpo de la cámara! 🤣
¡Desliza para ver nuestro “cómo se hizo” más fotogénico hasta la fecha!
That’s Fall, Folks! 👋🍁
AD As autumn comes to a close, we’ve teamed up with @oppoespana to give our favorite season a proper send-off. We can’t capture with words how much we love this time of year… but with the 200MP Telephoto camera of the OPPO Find X9 Pro we sure can! 📸
Who else is going to miss crunchy leaves and pumpkin spice everything? ☝️😭 #OPPOFindX9series

🎂 Happy Birthday dear Anna 🎶🎁
Turns out @Instagram wasn’t the only one blowing out candles recently, though I’m pretty sure @anniset didn’t turn 15 🤪. And what better way to celebrate her than by sharing a few of our favorite gift-inspired artworks we’ve created together over the years? Which one would you open first? 🤔
PS: Swipe all the way to the end for a little throwback photo that proves somethings truly never change 🥹.
