Cosas que se pueden hacer en este mundo (“Things that can be done in this world”) is a handmade publication in which we use the pictograms of the Vivaceta family to illustrate different scenes about work, crafts and the diversity of human occupations. Vivaceta is a set of pictograms and symbols depicting different human activities. It has been planned to be in constant expansion: each font contains 70 icons.

On each page, the illustration is in dialog with a single line sentence, which can be understood in multiple ways. It is a simple booklet that uses a clear language to invite us to play and think about the things we do.

So far we have published three volumes, each using one of the Vivaceta variants, and typeset in Lira Sans Normal and Wide. The three volumes were written, drawn and designed by Javier Quintana G. and Sergio Ramírez F. Risograph printed, bound and published with Ojoporojo.
