I designed promotional and supporting materials for Adelson Galleries' participation in Miami Project 2014, on view December 2 through December 7, 2014. Miami Project was a contemporary and modern art fair held annually during Miami Art Week in the Wynwood District. The booth presented works by Federico Uribe, Andrew Wyeth, Jamie Wyeth, Andrew Stevovich, and John Walker.

  • Development of a joint graphic brand system for Adelson Galleries and Adelson Galleries Boston.
  • Design of environmental graphics, including artist wall lettering.

Visual Identity

A visual identity was developed for the exhibition and applied consistently across all associated materials. This established the typographic language, layout structure, and graphic approach used throughout the deliverables produced.

Brand System

A unified graphic identity was developed joining Adelson Galleries and Adelson Galleries Boston under a single brand for the fair, applied consistently across all materials produced for the event.

Environment

These materials were designed for installation in the physical space of the exhibition. In all cases I coordinated with the producer to ensure quality and accuracy.

Artist Wall Lettering

Five sets of artist name lettering were produced as vinyl adhesive lettering and applied directly to the gallery walls, designating each artist's section within the booth.
