Career[edit]
Toledo specialises in using wood, as he says "There are many different ways to work with wood, such as cutting, sanding, joining and bending." Toledo goes onto say, "Wood is beautiful in itself, but its also a material that blends into its surroundings.[2]"
Toledo was invited by Cristiana Arcangeli, to be part of a team of designers on a TV programme called Extreme Makeover Social with the well known Brazilian TV channel Record TV. Toledo was invited to form part of a Design team, that would inject life back into buildings that help the community, such as crèches and setups that help the homeless.[citation needed]
