Sol Design Archive is an online collection of, well, stuff, with a focus on 20th century Portuguese graphic design and illustration but a voracious appetite for the full breadth of visual expression. The online archive currently features 658 images of 457 artefacts by 169 authors. Made for sharing, for fun and out of love by Ricardo Santos.

All materials created by Sol are shared under a CC0. Artworks and other resources are shared under fair use for educational and research purposes.

Save everything.
It may come in handy later.
